Same ol’ run around.

Make big news about tech sovereignty, open standards, decoupling from deviant big tech companies. As the hype dies out, silent abandonement back to corporate arms.

    Yeah this tracks for the Danish government. So I found the original press release from back in 2025 and I’ve sent them an email asking wtf is going on. They had 38 press releases for all of 2025, and for 2026 there’s been just 4 total, and the year is almost over.
    Not sure what is going on, except that we (Denmark) had a election year and it took 69 (nice) days to form a government, and that might’ve influenced how things are run there. It is funny though because our new government is slightly more left-leaning this time around, at least on paper, so one would think they’d be more interested in moving away from Microsoft.

      Woah, rare Putin reference.

      I have already spoken to three US Presidents. They come and go, but politics stay the same at all times. Do you know why? Because of the powerful bureaucracy. When a person is elected, they may have some ideas. Then people with briefcases arrive, well dressed, wearing dark suits, just like mine, except for the red tie, since they wear black or dark blue ones. These people start explaining how things are done. And instantly, everything changes. This is what happens with every administration.
