A Censored Headline and why it Matters: German High Court Outlaws Electronic Voting
The justices above are clearly the most rational group of high level functionaries in the industrialized world. They did what no other court would do in Europe or the United States.

3. It's just not news: it's about furriners and not correctly counting votes.
