Breaking news: #chatcontrol stryks från agendan till dagens COREPER II (representerar för EUs regeringar) möte! Det betyder att Belgien som ordförandeland inte känner att de har tillräckligt stöd för sitt kompromissförslag. Motståndet har effekt och det ger oss lite mer tid.

17 June 1942 | SS men shot 120 Polish prisoners at the Death Wall in #Auschwitz I. They were selected from those deported to the camp from Warsaw, Krakow, Tarnów, Radom, and Lublin.
One of them was a brickmaker from Marki Edward Rabczyński (np. 22869).
One of some 140,000 Poles incarcerated in Auschwitz.

Them: "Check out this youtube video!"
Me: "I don't watch youtube videos."
Them: "But this youtube video is good!"
Me: "Hey, that video may be sweet as pumpkin pie, but I'd never know 'cause I don't touch that filthy motherfucking website. Youtube is a Google site, so it's filthy. I don't visit filthy websites."
