De onzin van ons extreemrechtse kabinet over de niet bestaande asielcrisis.

This reads like classic 'it's not the same as X'. And an overestimation of actual human accounts on X in the Netherlands. Although yes, Dutch accounts on Mastodon aren't many, they are easily found, and interaction is up.

Dutch public sector has experimented with Mastodon for a year now. Pilot will run until December 2024. Started with 20 entities, now 40 active accounts. Plus is the easy recognition as authentic source (it runs on social.overheid.nl). They will open up to all levels of civil service in 2025. Good development.

The Guardian: Die Parteien, die die neue niederländische Rechtsregierung unterstützen, haben sich auf ein Arbeitsprogramm geeinigt. Wichtige klimapolitische Maßnahmen werden zurückgenommen. So soll die Höchstgeschwindigkeit auf Autobahnen wieder 130 km/h betragen; Agrardiesel wird wieder subventioniert. Bei der Installation von Wärmepumpen verzichtet man auf Zielwerte. Es sollen 4 Atomkraftwerke gebaut werden. Was die Regierung durchsetzen kann, ist noch unklar. https://www.theguardian.com/world/article/2024/may/16/new-dutch-coalition-aims-to-reintroduce-80mph-limit-in-cull-of-climate-goals

Bürgerinitiativen und NGOs klagen – u.a. wegen der Auswirkungen auf marine Ökosysteme – gegen eine geplante Gasbohr-Plattform in der Nähe der Nordseeinsel Borkum. Das Unternehmen One Dyas will dort 4,5-13 Milliarden Kubikmeter Erdgas fördern. Dadurch würden bis zu 65 Millionen Tonnen CO₂ emittiert. https://taz.de/Klage-gegen-Bohrprojekt-in-der-Nordsee/!5959459/

In den Niederlanden hat die Berufungsverhandlung begonnen, in der Shell gegen ein Urteil angeht, dass es zu einer drastischen CO2-Reduktion zwingt. Der wichtigste Gegner ist die Umweltorganisation Milieu defense. Shells Anwälte veranstalten eine propaganda-show, um die Verwendung fossiler Brennstoffe weiter zurechtfertigen. https://taz.de/Shell-vor-Gericht/!5999034/

Michel Forst, UN-Berichterstatter zur Aarhus-Konvention, hat die europäischen Regierungen aufgefordert, Klima-Aktivist:innen zu unterstützen statt sie zu kriminalisieren. Die zunehmende Repression gefährde das Erreichen der Pariser Klimaziele und Demokratie und Menschenrechte in Europa. Forst erwartet, dass Protest und direkte Aktion zunehmen, weil die aktuelle Politik vieler europäischer Regierungen die wissenschaftlichen Erkenntnisse zu globaler Erhitzung, Biodiversitätsverlust und Umweltverschmutzung nicht respektiert. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2024/feb/28/european-nations-must-end-repression-of-peaceful-climate-protest-says-un-expert

Second place: Union between GroenLinks & Partij van de Arbeid (PvdA), left of centre.

Third place: Volkspartij voor Vrijheid en Democratie (VVD), right of centre, previously lead by Rutte, now with Turkish born Dilan Yeşilgöz-Zegerius as a leader.

Farmer's party (BBB) is dropping, Geert Wilders (PVV) behind.

Since Unit 4 mentions some CC license infringement cases as examples, I recommend adding a court case from the Netherlands of a photographer suing a website for using their photo without permission or compensation. The name of the court case is below.

ECLI:NL:RBMNE:2021:5887

The court case ended with the judge awarding the photographer (plaintiff) the following damages (excerpt is from the court case records).

"5.4. orders [defendant] to pay to [plaintiff] against proof of discharge:

€ 450.00 in damages, increased by the statutory interest as referred to in Article 6:119 of the Dutch Civil Code, with effect from 11 June 2021 until the day of full payment,

€ 67.50 in extrajudicial collection costs,

5.5. orders [defendant] to pay the costs of the proceedings on the part of [plaintiff], estimated at € 2,036.30 until the judgment of this judgment, of which € 1,702.00 in salary for the authorized representative."

This case demonstrates the enforceability of the CC license in other countries, such as the Netherlands.
