    I am not sure if this is the right decision, given the hybrid warfare we see from Russia.

    Removing the capabilities to send information, contracts and the like by post, could backfire quite strongly if Russia manages to sabotage electronic communication in parts or even the entire country.

    I read this like “lol, thats dumb. Stupid danes”. Then I realized they also use PostNord, and that we were equally dumb in getting rid of the Swedish state postal service cause now we will probably enshittify eventually as well…

    Meanwhile in Germany:

    Fill out your application for the big central university exam, transmit it digitally to the state office, print it out, and send it mandatorily to them again physically, because greedy Bundesdruckerei lobbied to avoid generally being able to sign documents with your passport

        Everyone always brings Estonia when talking about digital administration.

        But here in Spain I have never had to go to a government office to bring papers for more than a decade, everything can be done online. I’m not sure what can be done digitally in Estonia that couldn’t be done in Spain. But I’m really curious.
