(hh) – If that is not the most accurate description of what is happening there, I don’t know what is. At our editorial meeting were wondering if they are sleeping, partying, looking at sheep pictures or whatever. So we did what every good journalist would have done… we went ahead and did some research. A representative of the European Commission was willing to talk to us and we were able to clarify some asp… wait now… actually we couldn’t.
But let’s start from the beginning. We were wondering about the situation between Germany and the Commission after they filed a report against Germany’s decision to close internal borders to protect their citizen and prevent further cyber attacks. The Commission has a clear point of view as they say that the German officials could have not known where the attacks came from and so nobody is protected by closed borders. As far as they know, the attackers could have even never ever been to Germany or the EU. The Commission wishes for stronger collaboration with its member state as they were not inform before closing their borders. Although the closed borders are threatening the market the European Commission is still willing to offer all resources at hand.
Seems like we got the same old news just in nicer words… well now that the European Court of Justice has issued the case and ruled in favor of Germany we hope to get some strong response from the Commission.
