Regina Laska criticized that Michail Swintschuk, despite his inclusion on the EU sanctions list in June 2023, apparently managed to travel from Germany to Bosnia and Herzegovina. According to Bosnian media, the founder of the Russian propaganda channel Rybar flew from Memmingen Airport to Sarajevo on October 2. The Bosnian portal Detector reported that he had been arrested a few days later in Montenegro and expelled for reasons of national security. During the arrest, the police seized high-resolution cameras, a drone, and several cell phones; it was unclear whether Swintschuk had these with him in Memmingen. Laska pointed out that, according to her account, Swintschuk is subject to an EU entry ban and is not allowed to enter or transit EU territory. Since a flight from Memmingen to Sarajevo leads over a Schengen external border, she asked how Swintschuk got to Germany, who issued him a visa, and whether his sanctioning had been recognized upon departure. According to Laska, there has been no confirmation of the trip by German authorities so far. She contrasted border controls at Memmingen Airport with those ordered by Federal Interior Minister Alexander Dobrindt (CSU) at the Austrian border. There, small cars are searched for refugees, whereas Swintschuk, according to her account, departed from the airport. She also pointed out that the Bavarian border police, which conducts checks at the airport, was established in 2018 by Markus Söder. Laska expressed outrage over what Russian nationals are still allowed to do in Germany and ironically asked whether RT chief Margarita Simonjan could soon book a wellness vacation in Garmisch. #EUSanktionen #Russland #Einreiseverbot (translated)

The user who opposes savings accounts cited Mercedes as an example of why, in his view, German car manufacturers were failing. He wrote that Mercedes charges 39 euros a year for drivers to see the location of their car in the app. An AirTag in the car is cheaper, according to the user. He also asked how users would react if Apple offered a similar feature only in a paid subscription, even though the company constantly tracked their location anyway. He referred to the Mercedes service as absurd. #Mercedes #Autoindustrie #Technologie (translated)

VolkerKetzer described the case of a man whose private cell phone number, email address, and home address were exposed in a hack of a customer database in 2020.

After journalists called him on the number and pointed out the publicly accessible data leak that had been available for six years, he confirmed it. Six days later, he had a new number. VolkerKetzer wrote that the man was not the chief security officer of a company, but rather the vice president of the Federal Intelligence Service and responsible for strategic military intelligence. #Datenschutz #Cybersecurity #Datensicherheit (translated)
