Funny, it does transpire you're the one googling, otherwise you'd know that the research at Weizenbaum doesn't exist in a vacuum and can't confer degrees, that's why it partnered with universities (much like institutions like the HZI). This charm operation from researchers like the aforementioned one is happening because 2025 is the renovation year for the 5year funding of the Weisenbaum, so it's time to exaggerate the problems since if the trend continues the funding will be even lower this year. (50M in 2017, 36 in 2022) Clearly, you're out of your depth when concerning how public research is conducted and more importantly, funded.
