Germany has been increasing its resistance against new technologies and business model is now officially a Digital Failed State, probably the only one of its kind. While in China more than 90% of all private households have access to a fibre optics network this number in Germany is a neglectable 3% with no hope for any improvement.
In addition, new technologies like AI or digital currencies are non-existent in Germany.
“Ze Germans – We’ve always been the good guys since 1945”
Perhaps, the effect/result/impact of the World War II! 
Congratulations, Torsten!
Thank you very much for your sympathy, Lawrence 
By the way, do you think it should read ‘World War II’ (without the definite article) or 'the World War II"?
I thought of writing **the second World War **, then changed my mind.
You are right. Thank you.
We see how Germany is handling the Covid pandemic. Health offices use fax machines to inform and correspond to the RKI or other institutions. The health minister himself was on a mind-blowing trip to Nigeria recently. Spahn witnessed that the GDC was using the software issued by RKI. He could not explain why the Nigerians are so successful at tracking several diseases while Germany is obviously unable to cope with tracing infections.
Furtermore a question which may arise, what if we would have the latest technology and nobody is able to use it properly?
