  The liberation of Western Europe in the Second World War remains one of the most significant military campaigns in history. The Allied push from Normandy to the Rhine marked the beginning of the end for Nazi Germany, culminating in its eventual surrender in May 1945. However, the path to victory was neither smooth nor inevitable. It was a campaign marked by intense fighting, strategic challenges, and the determination of soldiers from across the globe. 
    
  Following the D-Day landings on June 6, 1944, the Allies sought to free France from German occupation and drive Nazi forces back toward Germany. The operation, which involved an unprecedented amphibious invasion, was a turning point in the war. The success of the landings, despite the heavy losses, opened a second front in Europe, forcing Hitler to divert critical resources away from the Eastern Front, where the Soviet Union was steadily advancing. Yet, the Allies’ victory was not guaranteed, as German forces, though weakening, still posed formidable resistance. 
    
  The Battle of Normandy, with its brutal fighting in the hedgerows and small villages, proved to be just the beginning. The Allies encountered fierce opposition as they pushed eastward through France. While the liberation of Paris in August 1944 was a symbol of hope, it came with its own set of challenges. The need to secure vital supply lines, adapt to changing battle conditions, and coordinate across multiple national forces created both logistical and strategic headaches.

  Algorithms are not to be regarded as a technical structure but as a social phenomenon - they embed themselves, currently still very subtle, into our political and social system. Algorithms shape human behavior on various levels: they influence not only the aesthetic reception of the world but also the well-being and social interaction of their users. They act and intervene in a political and social context. As algorithms influence individual behavior in these social and political situations, their power should be the subject of critical discourse - or even lead to active disobedience and to the need for appropriate tools and methods which can be used to break the algorithmic power.
