Or you could just re-occupy Alsace.

I am not sure if the dismantling of the democracy in Germany should be seen so lightly. We are still far away from a 2nd Hitler, but not as far anymore as we were a few years back.

Searching secretly somebodies PC without a proper search warrant, or searching secretly somebodies PC even without prior suspicion. And both times with a Trojan... i leave it up to you what you think of it. I for my part hate it and i know that the Brits wouldn't even contemplate over this indiscriminate breach of all privacy rights. These are methods used by the Gestapo under Hitler or the Stasi in the old GdR and are methods used by any Dictator to supress the citizens.

The new Hacker Laws are bad news for the economy. The law is defined extremely broad and can be applied very quickly to a person using nmap to test the own network for open ports. You have it, you use it, you go to prison for it. But great, i can now finally open my security scan company and make big money ;). SImply run nessus and send the raw output to the customer, then charge 10k for it. Total effective worktime < 10 minutes. I do it for 6 months and then go into retirement.

I doubt that this is what your grandparents fought for during WWII. Do you want a Hitler 2.0 as neighbour? I don't. So far i was immigrant to the UK, but now i feel more and more as a political refugee. Sad but true.
