The old police flyer was crystal clear: “On the internet: keep your fingers off real names.” For years, the German police officially advised citizens to use pseudonyms to protect themselves from identity theft, stalking, doxxing, and other serious dangers. That reasonable advice was correct and based on common sense. Today, under the left-leaning Merz administration, the opposite is suddenly demanded. The Klarnamenpflicht is now being pushed as necessary for the “protection of all,” particularly children and against so-called hate speech. This is not a reasonable policy shift at all. It is blatant hypocrisy and political opportunism of the highest order. The police have once again shown they function as a political weathervane. They change direction exactly as the ruling administration requires. Yesterday, anonymity was a necessary protection for citizens. Today, it is portrayed as a security risk. If another party comes to power tomorrow, the recommendation will likely flip back again. One can no longer trust the police on such matters. They are not independent guardians of the law. They are political instruments that do exactly what the current government tells them to do. “Just following orders” has always been the DNA of much of the police force. That excuse was rejected at the Nuremberg Trials, yet the same mindset persists. They do not serve a higher principle of justice. They serve the political agenda of whichever party holds power at the moment. This push for mandatory real names on social media is not an isolated measure. It is part of a broader EU-driven agenda to dismantle individual freedoms. The Digital Services Act, combined with plans for Digital ID and chat control, points toward a future of far-reaching state surveillance. Big Brother is not coming. He is already being built, brick by brick, in Brussels and Berlin. Orwell would recognize this pattern immediately: the gradual erosion of anonymous speech under the guise of safety and protection. The EU has increasingly positioned itself against individual liberty and free expression across the continent. Under administrations like Merz’s in Germany, Starmer’s in Britain, and Macron’s in France, national governments are implementing Brussels’ vision of controlled speech, censorship, and monitored citizens. The right to speak anonymously online is fundamental to any free society. Removing it does not protect the vulnerable. It empowers the state to identify, monitor, and punish dissent. The old police recommendation to keep real names private was the only honest one. Anonymity on the internet remains essential for safety and freedom. The current reversal is not about protecting citizens. It is about controlling them, and the police are complicit, as they follow the directives of those in power. And those who support Klarnamenpflicht are not defending the weak. They are advancing the interests of an increasingly authoritarian state apparatus that fears uncontrolled speech more than any external threat and seeks greater control step by step. History offers enough examples of where such developments can lead, and they will not end well, as time will show.
