The German state is deeply invested in "supplementing" its own population with immigrants, the apparent rationale being that declining birth rates necessitate fresh blood to support the socialized medical and pension system. With criminal activity rapidly escalating, old school press has already experienced an EU "advisory" not to report on the ethnicity, national origin or religious belief system of those who commit crimes so as not to fan "xenophobia". Whereas the old school media in Germany (and the EU at large) is largely beholdent unto the state and their complicit corporate powers, new media is not (yet) sufficiently obedient to the political will, thus the new law.
