Privacy: the US has laws that allow security services to access all data of all companies that are in US jurisdiction. Risk management: the US government uses dependency on US companies as leverage to put pressure on other countries. Freedom: the US government published a security strategy that basically declares European liberal democracies as enemies. I like living in a European liberal democracy so I try not to support those who want to take that away with my money.

It was called a "book"

This is not correct as far as I know. The Norwegian government wanted to join the EU because in the current state they have a lot of obligations to be allowed to the single market and they even have to pay a large sum for it but they get no say in it. Voting rights are limited to full EU members. They are getting a bad deal, just like the UK will, simply because the population does not want to join the EU.

I want also to point out that this would not have happened if Norway had been in the EU already in 2010 because China would not risk trade with all of the EU because of such a small incident.

Spotify is the one service I'm happy to pay for. Their weekly mixes keep blowing my mind because it's such a great way to discover new music tailored to my taste. Plus, Spotify connect is a genius way to play music on loudspeakers. It works incredibly well with my Bose speakers. My impression is that they will continue to innovate in all kinds of areas so I think they have a good chance of winning. I needed to write this because just yesterday I thought how happy I am with Spotify. In case it sounds too fanboy-ish.

Even on desktop it's hardly readable. The resolution of the slideshare slides is terrible.

"Als" is not correct here. It should be "Da wir die Umfrage 2016 abschließen ..."

In the second example it should be "... dass die LW-Gemeinde in der Bevölkerung nicht sank sondern eher in verschiedene Gemeinden abgewandert ist." But I'm having a hard time translating "so much as" in this context to German.

> Unser Baby ist im Januar fällig

Freely translated: "Our baby is going down in January."

I hope we get to use your BankID system here in Germany then because our system using the chip in our ID is a nightmare. I was an early adopter but never got it to work properly.
