Quick Glance: German Exit from Nuclear Energy: Ideology Over Pragmatism
- During an energy crisis, green ministries in Germany pushed through the nuclear energy phaseout, disregarding warnings and prioritizing ideological goals over energy security.
- Internal communications reveal that high-ranking green officials ignored and twisted facts to advance the nuclear phaseout, even if it raised safety concerns.
- The origins of the energy transition were not primarily focused on climate change but aimed to eliminate nuclear energy and transition to renewables and coal.
- The decommissioned nuclear power plants now serve as monuments to a green misstep that led Germany into an energy policy tragedy, potentially hindering the construction of new nuclear power plants.

Quick Glance: TikTok Ban Threat: ByteDance Prefers Closure Over Sale, Insiders Say
- ByteDance, the owner of TikTok, would prefer to shut down its loss-making app rather than sell it if all legal options to fight legislation to ban the platform from app stores in the US are exhausted, said four sources.
- TikTok accounts for a small share of ByteDance’s total revenues and daily active users, so the parent would rather have the app shut down in the US in a worst-case scenario than sell it to a potential American buyer, they said.
- ByteDance would not agree to sell one of its most valuable assets – its “secret source” – to rivals, said the four sources, referring to the TikTok algorithm.
- After facing challenges regarding bans, the short-form video app has encountered partial and attempted prohibitions in the US and other nations.
