Going through this at the moment. Was it a physical card? What evidence of purchase did they ask you to provide?

Tutanota was forced to install a backdoor by a German court (see

) I don't think a US court can force a US company to do so.

They've voted in favour of mass surveillance too.

I'm pro decentralisation too. The eurosceptic parties I know are all in favour of more surveillance. Pick your poison. ;-)

Nonsense? Ukraine applied for NATO membership in 2008. NATO didn't turn them down. It was pretty evident back then that this was going to lead to a conflict. Do I understand why Ukraine wants to join the EU and NATO? Yes, of course! Money&security! This war was obviously a huge mistake. He's turned Ukrainians who were sympathetic towards Russia against him because they too don't want war on their doorstep.

Most european countries are rearming no? And Ukraine is just the start. EU/NATO expansionism & Russia pushing back is going to lead to wars in Belarus/Armenia/Georgia as well.

I expect more people will vote far right or far left as a consequence. I'm a moderate, but the centre parties that created this mess won't get my vote again.

Consider yourself lucky you're not across the sea in the Netherlands. Inflation is 14%+ and household purchasing power is below the level it was 20 years ago.

One other thing about Svalbard : no VAT or excise duty!
