kimmonismus criticizes Germany's AI discourse, citing Monday's three digital headlines in Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung: frontier labs framed as anti-democratic threats to the public sphere; Meta accused of "stealing" journalists' content via its terms-of-service update; and a neuroscientist calling for youth protection from social media plus a decisive decoupling from Silicon Valley. He calls the narrative absurd and concludes "Europe has lost."
