New German citizens required to affirm Israel's right to exist www.middleeasteye.net

Applicants for German citizenship will be required to explicitly affirm Israel's right to exist under a new citizenship law which came into effect on Tuesday. The new law shortened the number of years that a person must have lived in Germany in order to obtain a passport, from eight to five years. It will also allow first-generation migrants to be dual citizens. As part of the shake-up, new questions were added to the country's citizenship test, including about Judaism and Israel's right to exist.

[Meta] Are there people who would like to take over the moderation of this community, and manage the discussion about where to move it next?

Following up on this comment from the current mod, [@poVoq@slrpnk.net](https://slrpnk.net/u/poVoq) https://slrpnk.net/comment/9445371 > I would much rather someone else takes over moderation, yes. Both because of various federated moderation bugs in Lemmy making it hard to moderate a community that isn’t on your home instance and because I have way to many communities that I moderate already. > If needed, I would be willing to help with moderation, but not be the main moderator of such a new community. So that means that ideally we should get new moderators for this community, who should then decide among the different options stated in the other [Meta] thread: https://slrpnk.net/post/10808865 Any volunteers?

[Meta] It seems that feddit.de communities are moving to feddit.org, is it going to be the plan for this one too?

Basically, title. I randomly stumbled upon !ich_iel@feddit.org, which seems to be the new home of the former [!ich_iel@feddit.de](https://feddit.de/c/ich_iel) (they even added a last meme on the latter: https://feddit.org/post/22759) I also had a look at https://feddit.org/c/main but my German is very basic, the most interesting topic seems to be a tutorial on how to migrate accounts from feddit.de to feddit.org Are we planning to do the same?

Hezbollah chief Nasrallah threatens Israel, Cyprus if Gaza war spills over www.france24.com

Hezbollah has been trading fire with Israel for more than eight months in parallel with the Gaza war. On Tuesday, the Iran-backed group published what it said was drone footage of sensitive military sites deep in Israeli territory. In a televised address on Wednesday, Hezbollah chief Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah said "there will be no place safe from our missiles and our drones" in Israel in the event of a broader war. The group also had "a bank of targets" that it could target in precision strikes, he said. Israel "knows that what also awaits it in the Mediterranean is very big ... In the face of a battle of this magnitude, it knows that it must now wait for us on land, in the air, and at sea," Nasrallah added. Israeli Foreign Minister Israel Katz had warned on Tuesday that a decision on an all-out war with Hezbollah was coming soon and Israel's military said "operational plans for an offensive in Lebanon were approved and validated". Nasrallah also threatened Cyprus - the EU member state in closest proximity to Lebanon, with which it has cordial relations - accusing it of allowing Israel to use its airports and bases for military exercises.

Do any credit reporting agencies in Europe give consumers control over creditors access?

In the US, consumers can freeze their credit worthiness records and receive a code. When the records are frozen, the only orgs that can access the records are those already doing business with the consumer. If a consumer wants to open up a new account, they share the code with the prospective creditor who uses it to see the credit report. So the question is, how are access controls on credit histories done in various EU nations? Do any use unlock codes like the US, or is it all trust based?

Democracy at risk: media warfare and the role of technology in modern elections - Friends of Europe www.friendsofeurope.org

"Professors at the European University Institute are warning of the rapid popularisation of generative-AI that makes threats of foreign interference and disinformation operations more subtle and harmful for our democracies than ever before. The number of violations reported just in Europe and only in 2024, also denounced by the Danish Broadcasting Corporation, depicts well-established tactics of media warfare from which the population needs to be protected."

‘My state pension was £880 – and my rent was £1,000’: how a 70-year-old man became homeless in Britain www.theguardian.com

Tony Sinclair had worked all his life – but still found himself sleeping rough. Then even his tent was taken away from him. In a way, 70-year-old Tony Sinclair was lucky to be in his tent on the day last year when the police arrived. The canvas that kept him from the elements ended up in the bin, but, unlike several of his neighbours, he was able to save his most important possessions from going the same way.

Council to greenlight Chat Contol on June 19th - Patrick Breyer (MEP Pirate Party) www.patrick-breyer.de

> The Belgian Council presidency seems set to greenlight Chat Control on Wednesday 19 June. This confirms fears: the proponents of Chat Control want to exploit the situation after the European Elections, in which there is less public attention and the European Parliament is not yet constituted. If Chat Control makes it through the Council now, there is a risk that the Parliament in its new composition will not fight as fiercely as before and surrender our previous wins. > **Timeline** > > On Thursday, [13 June](https://data.consilium.europa.eu/doc/document/CM-3141-2024-INIT/en/pdf), ministers were set to debate a progress report. ([Find a recording here](https://video.consilium.europa.eu/event/en/27508)) The Belgian Council presidency [announced](https://data.consilium.europa.eu/doc/document/ST-10666-2024-INIT/en/pdf) that they will present a new compromise proposal afterwards. According to documents [leaked by netzpolitik.org](https://netzpolitik.org/2024/anlasslose-massenueberwachung-frankreich-wackelt-in-der-ablehnung-der-chatkontrolle/#dokument), the session to seek an agreement on it will already take place on Wednesday, [19 June](https://www.consilium.europa.eu/en/meetings/mpo/2024/6/coreper-2-permanent-representatives-committee-(337001)/).
