Who would have thought that deliberately making millions of poisonous machines, wantonly breaking laws around the world might have some kind of repercussions in the future 🤷🏼‍♂️.

Oh, and weren't they switching to 100% EVs by now? Because I'm regularly seeing brand new diesel VW wankpanzers on the roads.

TBH they deserve to be crushed by subsidised Chinese EV imports. Fuck 'em.

An ‘earthquake’ at Volkswagen – and a crisis for Germany?

The company is seen as crucial not just to local but national wellbeing – and never before have its workers been threatened in their own homeland like this

The Guardian

Just meaning to be fair:

If there's a major problem with a car feature, the manufacturer has to recall and correct them all, to avoid fatalities, or even get sued.

If processed food has bacterial contamination, the seller MUST recall and destroy the whole lot on its own expense, to avoid illness or death among consumers.

But if the oil industry is literally burning our planet with a powerful greenhouse gas emitter, and as Darren Woods from Exxon stated, "it's because people are buying fuel from us", then they must pay from their profits to clean our atmosphere.

On either three cases, buying something is not intended to harm one self, and if there's a problem with the product, it must be recalled to avoid further damages to consumers.

Your product is the problem and has to be recalled!

Advertising watchdog: Shell misleads with ads about ‘green’ hydrogen - Reclame Fossielvrij

Parliamentary questions were filed today about the need for a ban on fossil ads, following a ruling by the Dutch Advertising Code Committee (RCC) that Shell misleads with the advertisements about green hydrogen. The ruling came on the same day that Shell received another complaint about its advertising campaign on CO2 compensation. A case about that campaign was won in 2021 by 9 law students and their professor, but the submitters see that Shell still advertises with offsetting.
