It might help to mention the past actions of Urusla von der Leyen when she was in the German Government: “Zensursula is the online nickname given to Ursula von der Leyen, the former German Minister for Family Affairs who came under media scrutiny in 2009 for her strong advocacy of censorship laws against online content that may be deemed "inappropriate" by the federal government, especially on the issue of child pornography.” “In January 2009, Germany's Federal Ministry of Family Affairs launched the first government initiative towards more strict censorship of child pornography on the Internet. Formally known as the Access Impediment Act, it was drafted under the leadership of the Family Affairs minister Ursula von der Leyen[1], one of the staunchest advocates of Internet censorship in the federal government.” “The Act proposed a mandatory blockage of online child pornography by Internet service providers through a blacklist of illegal websites maintained by the Federal Criminal Police Office of Germany (BKA). In the following days, the legislative proposal sparked a political debate among German Internet users about whether the state may or should have an infrastructure to censor the internet.” “While the initiative was mostly geared towards taboo topics like terrorism and child pornography, the scope of online debate became focused on general censorship of content on the web. Due to her vocal support of the censorship laws, the critics dubbed the Family Affairs minister "Zensursula," a portmanteau of the German word "Zensur" (Censorship) and her first name "Ursula." The nickname quickly gave way to a slew of parodies including original songs and remixes.” https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/zensursula https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/zensursula That does not mean that the intention is to copy China, but it does indicate her propensity to favor limiting access to information by the general population.
