German Politician Thinks Gmail Constituent Messages Are All Faked By Google
Found on Techdirt on Tuesday, 19 February 2019
Schulze must have thought he was really on to something in claiming he had real proof of Google astroturfing. In a tweet (in German) he claimed that because all of the complaints he's getting seem to come from people with Gmail addresses, it's proof of fakery. No, really.
To claim that seeing Gmail emails proves Google is astroturfing is... nutty. And, it would appear that Schulze's followers recognize just how idiotic this looks.
The Internet is still Neuland for politicians.
