As someone with both a college level understanding of German and an understanding of law, it’s basically a law creating a special type of lawsuit similar but different from a US class action, that Germany passed into law after the 2015 Volkswagen scandal. It tries to incentivize businesses protecting consumers through actual safeguards by punishing companies when they lack them, rather than a class action that arguably has the effect of pressuring companies to be even more misleading or confusing to deliberately avoid liability. How it does this? Probably gonna have to tap in a legal scholar for that one.
I said “basically my native language” because I consider Swiss German and High German to be different languages. But for all intents and purposes except that technicality I’m a native speaker of German.
I think for written words in a professional context it’s very similar. but yeah swiss or high German that’s just one of those totally not made up words that exists to troll German speakers. 🤣
I speak German (it’s basically my native language) and I have no idea what that word is meant to mean.
I looked it up and this came up.
I only took introductory German so I have no idea what this is but I think it’s a law or something.

So its basically some version of a class action lawsuit then? Would be nice if something like that actually happened after all those broken promises…

Uhm, you’re talking about Swiss High German aka “(Schweizer) Schriftdeutsch”. What I’m talking about is Swiss German aka “Schwiizerdüütsch”.
