The European Institute of Innovation & Technology (EIT), which received €435m in taxpayer money in 2025, is the only EU agency out of a total of 43 whose accounts did not yield a “clean opinion” in the most-recent audit.
The accounts of the innovation hub did not properly reflect an €8.7m recovery uncertainty, according to a report by European Court of Auditors (ECA) last week.
How do you know that?
This is simply wrong. Almost all posts are accessible either via original or archived links.
Check for yourself.
TOP5 right now for me is: 2x Cookie-Wall (Heise.de, Guardian), 1x translated summary from dutch article (nos.nl), AP press release which has 400 words and militarnyi.com blog post which has 250 words. All of this is either behind a barrier or shorter than the 650 words text in OP’s post. Curiously, we haven’t seen tardigrade complaining below any of these posts.
Archive.today links are banned in this community. Fair-use archives like wayback machine are getting blocked by news sites as a casualty of their efforts to block AI scraping bots.
Heise, The Guardian, militarnyi. com and many others can all be archived and are then fully accessible, while neither the Internet Archive nor removepaywall .com works with EUObserver.
I don’t understand what’s so controversial that people should be able to read a full report instead of just the headline. Do whatever you want, I end this discussion.
None of the mentioned posts provides an archive link - neither in the post nor in comments. Unlike the current post, which has a link to full article in the comments.
Then you should launch a community which only allows internet archive or removepaywall.com links and stop complaining here.
