| German officials attempted to start a criminal investigation into a social media user, the social medium there was Gab, who allegedly called a left-wing female politician fat. | |
| Sorry for laughing. | |
| Because it's not actually laughable. | |
| It's frightening. | |
| But the platform refused to comply with the German authorities' invasive demands to uncover the person's identity, the platform told Fox News Digital. | |
| The Federal Criminal Police Office Bundeskriminalamant No, did I get it right? | |
| Bundeskriminalamant I know you find this unamusing. | |
| It's a challenged German. | |
| I love languages. | |
| Contacted Gab about a user insulting the weight of politician Ricarda Leng, a prominent leader of an environmental party in Germany. | |
| And the environmental parties. | |
| You know what we would do without them? | |
| There is a word that comes to mind. | |
| Guess what word comes to my mind? | |
| What would we do without green parties and green activists? | |
| I have the perfect word. | |
| We would prosper. | |
| That's what we would do. | |
| It requested information that would identify who the individual was under the suspicion... | |
| They resided in Germany so that they can continue their criminal investigation. | |
| Who's Torba? | |
| It says here, Torba. | |
| How could they give a name and not tell who Torba is? | |
| Torba called Germany's request one of the more ridiculous foreign data requests that Gab received. | |
| He's the owner of Gab? | |
| CEO. They wanted to dox the user for calling a female politician fat. | |
| Gab's official response was to inform the German government they should get bent. | |
| That's a funny phrase. | |
| The CEO, Andrew Torba. | |
| Now they identify who he is. | |
| There's a lot of bad writing in news stories these days. | |
