germany's digital infrastructure is a global laughing stock, this doesn't bode well.
- johannes1234321 2y agoThat's more a mistranslation of the role. Digital infrastructure was part of traffic ministry. Her role was coordinating the government's mostly internal digital strategy. Thus reviewing new bills, looking at processes inside the administration etc. most of the work outside the public eye.

The recent rapid improvements even diminished Romania's lead to less than 250%. Of course this is only up to the Telekom speedtest server, beyond that nearly all of Germany's 50-100Tbps get funneled through 362Gbps of interconnections onto the open internet.
