Well that’s what communists do Mass murder people and police their every blink and bowel movement of a person . George Orwell in a time of deceit telling the truth is a revolutionary act .

They watch you through your phones. And the messages you send I whats app and telegram alert them. You never had freedom. Phones are designed to monitor you everywhere.

"Coronavirus deniers". Again one of those deliberately misleading terms, which are insinuating that all critics of the corona politics/measures are crazies who are deniers of the very existence of the virus and not to be taken seriously.
I feel the need to say a few things about the original article from https://www.nytimes.com/2021/04/28/world/europe/germany-coronavirus-deniers-surveillance.html : "The movement, called Querdenken, German for lateral thinking, communicates and recruits over social media and has a large presence on the encrypted chat service Telegram, [...]". This is partly wrong. Yes, many critics of the lockdown measures communicate with each other via the app telegram. And yes, telegram is able to encrypt messages. BUT telegram does not encrypt by default. You need to turn on that encryption feature manually. So you have to be fully aware of that encryption when you use it. "The news comes days after Germany instituted new virus rules that apply nationwide and allow the federal government to enforce lockdowns. (Such regulation had previously been in the hands of the country’s 16 states.)". There is a good reason why such regulations used to be "in the hands of the country's 16 states". It's called "democracy". Each federal state has the right to set its own regulations. The German government rarely interferes with a federal state's rules. But the new law officially called "Infektionsschutzgesetz" authorises the government to make decisions on the behalf of each federal state once its socalled "Inzidenzwert" (incidence rate or incidence value) passes the number 100.
So sad to see!
Why don't Germans learn enough from history😪?
BTW, I got your book through Amazon, Brittany!
