During the past 5 months, the armed forces have sent questionnaires about the voluntary military service to 300k 18-year-old Germans.
90% of the men (who are required to fill out the form) answered immediately, further 6% after being reminded (the others are facing fines). ¼ of the replying men were initially interested, and ½ of them remained so after being called.

The ruling could set a precedent for AI-generated content liability worldwide.

Nur: Es war ein Völkermord-Urteil (§ 6 VStGB). IS-Verbrechen an Jesidinnen, per Weltrechtsprinzip verfolgt – das Gegenteil von Vertuschung. Und „Völkermord" steht sogar in dem BR-Artikel, den er selbst verlinkt.
