  • I’m gonna go with no, because of containerization and permission management. On your computer, any program can do pretty much anything, unless you explicitly take measures against this. On a smartphone, you get a lot of control over your apps. In newer Android versions you can even completely disable cameras and microphones (even if only in software).

    I would use a throwaway account and avoid giving Google any personal data tho. Of course they could still figure stuff out, but it’s harder and unreliable, not to mention super-duper illegal (at least in the EU), so I kinda doubt they go the extra mile.


  • Man munkelt das stößt gar nicht so wenigen in der CDU sauer auf - denn die regieren entweder schon mit den Grünen oder wissen, dass sie vielleicht keine Wahl haben, wenn die Kräfteverhältnisse nur schlecht (bzw. gut :P) genug stehen.

    Sogar Imperator Merz höchst selbst passt inzwischen auf, wie er sich bzgl. Koalitionen äußert. Außer der Ampel natürlich. Die unterstützt Kriminelle, hat ganz alleine alle Brücken kaputt gemacht und VW gegen die Wand gefahren. Das weiß jeder.






  • He probably wasn’t arrested. It sounds like the police handcuffed him while checking whether he was indeed alone and then asked about what he was doing at his computer. After he explained, they asked him to turn off the stream, at which point I would assume he was freed again.

    I assume they went on to explain the situation and then questioned him. If there is no evidence of any crime, they will just take his personals so they can contact him on any development. He is the victim of a crime after all.






  • There is hard evidence these checks prevent crime (i.e. smuggling and human trafficking), as well as evasion of judicial measures. So, since these checks will not just go away in the foreseeable future, he needs to provide a better alternative.

    Edit: I don’t really get Denmark and Benelux tho. I doubt there is that much going on via these borders, but maybe I’m mistaken? I can see smuggling over their ports could be a problem, but that could be resolved by tightening security there instead of at the borders.
