I wonder there is not already such a petition in the EU or Germany. I searched, but didn't find any. Somebody who wants to create one? I'm not that good in writing such texts:

Europe: https://www.europarl.europa.eu/petitions/de/home

Germany: https://epetitionen.bundestag.de/epet/startseite.nc.html



> Germany

Ongoing discussion:

Digital Minister wants open standards and open source as guiding principle (heise.de)

Was going to mention the same. I do feel like there is some connection there.

The new digital minister seems to be doing well. He used to be CEO of an electronics retailer with mixed to negative reputation in nerd circles, but he also has a physics degree and has software experience in the trenches, so I wasn't sure what to think of him.


I'm keeping my fingers crossed! Hopefully it won't just remain at the announcement stage.
