A few days ago told me about the action of PCAction could be voted on at the gaming-word of the year 2009. Well, "Unwörter" in the sense they are, like Project Dragon responded, not really. It's probably more to the gaming concept. But that's beside the point. The outcome of the vote has now been announced .

The winner is-who would have thought the different word-killer game with 35.22%. Surprisingly, this result was not really, and this term has been often wrongly used by the press in to the mainstream to be popular.
In second place comes "Zensursula" (7.86%), followed closely by the on-line activation (7.55%).

As the music magazine laut.de reported, the new Rammstein album "Love Is For All Da" has now been indexed. The request for an audit or an indexing set-surprise, surprise - Ursula von der Leyen. Anyone who does not remember: This is the woman in the federal government, which wanted to protect children through virtual stop signs in front of the abuse that came ultimately to massive criticism from the internet lobby. But let's go back to Rammstein.

On her Facebook page , the band released the following news :

Verdict: the new Rammstein album has been indexed by the request of the Minister von der Leyen, Federal Ministry and will be conducted in future only have under the counter. Full-year olds should not forget their card and then ask their retailer.

Is not that ridiculous? I mean, a G-18 would seal it but done well, or not? Or use this woman vd Leyen action to bring back rum and honor at the core constituency of their party? According to many "insiders" there is much "harder" band than Rammstein. Freezing rain, for example.

I would imagine as well that the album still sold better now. Because: Prohibited items (with yes here we must speak of an index and not a ban) are always much more exciting than stuff allowed. In addition, once the general question: Do you all what is shown in a song? I do not even have. The new album was in fact banned because of the song Pussy to unprotected sex and the calling in times of AIDS is unacceptable. Aside from the fact that in any line of talk: I assume that just once every reasonably intelligent audience that he does not do everything that to which the song invokes. If we start so that there are a lot of other music that you would also prohibit: Death Metal, Gangstermukke, etc pp.

Let us be clear: This whole operation is completely ridiculous. In the end, the album will now have any anyway. Just because it is forbidden.

Update: Spiegel Online wrote an article about this "scandal" designed and published the article as an interview between Ursula L vd, Silbereisen, Lindemann and Bass Sultan Hengzt.

These are also affidavits of the BKA President and Head of the competent for the court demanded. At the same time, the EU Commission has given the green light for the blocking law . This is an exciting debate in the network censors.

Despite the setback from the EU Commission: The decision of the Administrative Court of Wiesbaden is a reason to celebrate. It has the company made ​​clear that such a law, as of Ursula von der Leyen desired, against the German constitutional violation that requires quite clear that censorship (in any medium!) does not occur.
