Österreich: FPÖ und ÖVP liefern sich Kopf-an-Kopf-Rennen
Die FPÖ um Herbert Kickl kann erstmals bei einer Nationalratswahl auf Platz eins landen. Doch ÖVP-Kanzler Karl Nehammer schließt eine Koalition mit den Freiheitlichen kategorisch aus. Stattdessen zeichnet sich ein mögliches Bündnis aus ÖVP, SPÖ und NEOS ab, um den „Volkskanzler“ Kickl zu verhindern.

Founder Pavel Durov says tech is meant to set you free In 2014, Pavel Durov fled the country after allies of the Kremlin took control of the social networking site most know just as VK. Russia's intelligence agency had asked Durov to turn over the data of anti-Kremlin protesters. Durov refused to do so. WhatsApp, a rival messaging platform, introduced some measures to counter disinformation when Covid-19 was first sweeping the world. This provided opportunity to their linked entities to offload their shares at higher prices and make significant profits at the cost of unsuspecting retail investors. The company maintains that it cannot act against individual or group chats, which are “private amongst their participants,” but it will respond to requests in relation to sticker sets, channels and bots which are publicly available. During the invasion of Ukraine, Pavel Durov has wrestled with this issue a lot more prominently than he has before. Channels like Donbass Insider and Bellum Acta, as reported by Foreign Policy, started pumping out pro-Russian propaganda as the invasion began. So much so that the Ukrainian National Security and Defense Council issued a statement labeling which accounts are Russian-backed. Ukrainian officials, in potential violation of the Geneva Convention, have shared imagery of dead and captured Russian soldiers on the platform.
