Ramat Gan under fire: Danger for Weinheim's partner city!

Weinheim, Deutschland - The twin city of Weinheim, Ramat Gan in Israel, is in the focus of international reporting. In the past few days, the city has been affected by several rocket strokes, which not only affects the life of the residents, but also presents urban administration with great challenges. According to wnoz.de, the effects of these attacks are devastating. Part of the local infrastructure was damaged and many citizens are worried about their security.

The situation also brings the international cooperation between Weinheim and Ramat Gan into conversation. While the two cities are working on various projects, it is now clear how important it is to be solidarity, especially in times of crisis. The Mayor of Weinheim, Manuel Just, has already offered support and contacted those responsible in Ramat Gan.

A critical look at cookies and data protection

The legal situation on cookies still remains complex. Since the telecommunications telemedia data protection law (TTDSG) came into force on December 1, 2021, many operators have been required to provide clear information and to obtain the consent of the users. Many users are confused with the "OK" label on cookie banners because there is often no real choice. The European legislative process to the Eprivacy Ordinance is still in the balance, which means that many legal questions remain open.

• cookies are necessary for functionality or user behavior.
• The use of cookies for marketing requires users' consent.
• The GDPR regulates the processing of personal data by cookies.

The discussion about the planned Eprivacy Ordinance is particularly exciting, which still requires agreements between the EU Commission, the EU Parliament and the Council of the European Union. Many change requests from individual member states and trade associations must be taken into account. The current lack of clarity means that both consumers and providers often have to operate in a legal gray area.

whether in Ramat Gan or on the Internet - it can be seen that the protection of citizens and users must come first in times of crisis. The current events in Weinheim's twin town are reminding us that quick help and clear rules are of great importance.
