I also see the reference to China there but it's qualified: Transparency, democratic values etc.
It also never mentions anything being closed.
So I don't think the original criticism/fear of a closed European Internet can be read into this.
The thing this refers to - I believe - is among other things GAIA-X: https://www.bmwi.de/Redaktion/EN/Publikationen/Digitale-Welt/project-gaia-x.html https://www.bmwi.de/Redaktion/EN/Publikationen/Digitale-Welt...
- TomMarius 6y ago> but it's qualified: Transparency, democratic values etc. Yeah, the communists were telling us that for 40 years. Words don't always match the reality, especially when someone is plainly talking about stuff like transparency and democratic values (what does that even mean in the context of an Internet firewall?).
- lars_francke 6y agoThey don't. You haven't put forward any arguments that supports your position though. You mentioned unrelated things. This is not a paper from the Chinese government or a communist party so why should. That kind of reasoning is a slippery slope in my opinion.
- TomMarius 6y agoWe are talking about Ursula von der Leyen, isn't that enough? Do you not know her history with internet censorship?
