>IS there such thing as no foreign influence?
It is pretty clear that there is no such lack of influence in Poland, since the law was dropped at the last instance, probably at the behest of a very influential foreigner ;-)
Ok, I'm not seeing your point. First, this was specifically about "media" influence. Plus a similar law already exists in France, and the German govt. goes to all extents possible to prevent media like RT to have a broadcast license (and not even air broadcast: even their youtube channels with hundreds of thousands of subscribers, one of the most popular german-language media in that platform, are targeted and banned for dubious reasons)
Also, as I understand, this polish law didn't attempt to prevent all foreign media influence, just to limit it. And furthermore, it only applied to entities outside the EEC
Anyway, I suppose the bill will return in due time in version adjusted to appropriately exempt said foreign influencer
