Well, how does it look when Merkel is talking about the internet.

Germany has a project called DE-Mail. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De-Mail

It's a kind of E-Mail service to improve Data-Protection and get legally binding electronic communication. So far so good.

But how is this done, and what are the impacts. At first E-Mail got a price tag. Second, there is no End-To-End-Encryption. Third, you're legally bound if they say this mail arrived, no matter if you even noticed or read. 4th there are public companies involved, able to read high sensitive data sent by DE-Mail, because there is no End-to-End communication. This companies are also able, but not allowed, to send legally binding mails in your name. How could you prove, you didn't sent?

This is the context, when German politicians talk about the internet. They have no clue.
