Goodbye German IT

Well, hit is it - the effective end of german IT. Germany hosts many international companies and their data centres. If it's no longer legal to posess and exploit the tools needed to protect those centre from hackers, whether inside or outside of germany, the centres will move. There's already cost pressue from cheaper countries, now the beancounters will enlist the corporate lawyers to leverage the moves.

Meanwhile these guys are legalising police snooping on private computers. Not good.

Looks like it's time I found a new job before the rush. Anyoone need an english computer guy with years of experience and reasonable german? Bitte.
