#5This is amazing and very useful transparency.
It's very easy and clear to see that e.g. Airbus are lobbying (not necessarily in the negative sense, there are information meetings with youth programmes) a lot; that there are lots of tenders with red flags (https://redflags.integritywatch.eu/) but most are just that there haven't been a lot of proposals.

#6How are EU citizens going to prevent a politician favoring for the wrong reasons some big corps while mandated (by doing things... or carefully not doing anything...) and ending up, after his/her mandate, in some proxy of this big corp to be thanked "nicely" (from the bottom of big corp wallet).
It is very important to draw a clear line between "right" and "wrong" reasons, because all policitians after their mandate will end up in a corp of some sort, as life is long road.

#7The first three comments within the hour that this article was posted, were made by a 10-minutes old account and seem suspiciously like anti-EU astroturfing.
Makes me hope or wish for a cross-website pseudonymous karma system, to at least rein in this kind of public opinion gaming.
Back on-topic: this website seems to be a net positive, already it's challenging some of my preconceptions in that some EU member states are apparently more or less corrupt than I was expecting.

#10The amount of government corruption everywhere is unfathomable. They're essentially handing out billions worth of contracts to their friends... This crony-economy dominates every aspect of our lives as it's not possible for honest businesses to compete against businesses that are backed by easy government money. It's very much like slavery. The only significant difference is that instead of having two classes of people; slaves and masters, slavery is now a spectrum and is determined by how far you are from government money printers. It's absolutely disgusting.
We are heading towards a reality worse than hell where those who are good, honest, hard working and generous are punished for the benefit of those who are wicked, dishonest, lazy and greedy... All while the real economy disintegrates and concentrates in fewer and fewer hands which makes the shrinking pool of 'the lucky few' increasingly delusional and out of touch. We need to abolish the monetary system NOW and abolish taxes. Government should be forced to operate on absolute minimal resources based on its own investments.
