    Re "why"
    To show the EU nations have further plans for the internet and the freedom of speech and freedom after speech.

    Hows that new NetzDG (~ Network Enforcement Act) working in German?

    That gives nations that still have internet freedom some idea of what nations, governments and bureaucracies want to do to the internet, the media and internet users.
    In their own nations and with EU wide cooperation.

    Its difficult to get "freedom" back once governments pass new censorship laws on what can be publish and who can publish :)
    Once a government uses laws to stop publication and remove publications. Then starts investigations on who published.

    Most people live in flats.

    Really? Not in my country. According to this, 70% of Americans live in single-family homes and 80% want to. In the UK, 65% own their homes and according to this article "in countries such as Britain, Croatia and Norway, more than 80 percent of people live in houses."

    If you are going to make up "facts" as you go along you shouldn't be so blatant, that one was easily refutable.

    The 'denser' the energy generation is, the more it is open to centralized abuse.
    J.P. Morgan killed Tesla's project of wireless energy distribution the moment he realized it couldn't be metered.
    That's the same reason why solar got so little support for such a long time.
    Let the people buy their solar roof, although I predict that taxation will replace the centralized billing.

    If I lived in Finland I'd probably want to get out too. You know how little daylight they have there? I'd rather be in prison in Spain at this time of year :)

    No, one more reply, just because you actually might be totally fucking ignorant and loud about it.

    That's how easy it is to catch ebola. Yes, you're being a stupid asshole. Stupid because you don't know what the hell you're talking about when it comes to anything you've said whatsoever, from public health to politics, and asshole because you insist on spewing your bullshit despite being warned about the immense harm it could do. You're not saving your neighbors there, hero. You're trying to kill them.
