Gab, a social media platform, has received a data request from the German federal police (BKA) seeking to identify a user who insulted Green party politician Ricarda Lang by calling her fat. The request, which was turned down by Gab, cited a violation of section 185 of the German criminal code, which pertains to offenses against personal honor. Gab CEO Andrew Torba confirmed the request and highlighted the company's refusal to comply. The incident has sparked discussions on censorship and the extent of government intervention in online speech.
