  • Well businesses use them because there is so much traffic coming and going. Hope you don’t have that much at your place.

    I could only think that we have better weatherproofing around doors now (and better doors themselves too with better insulation). And the rest of the house is better insulated and air tight too, so less of a need. We used to have screen doors that cut the wind as well, don’t see many of those but those could come back. Interesting idea but I can’t really see them coming back, especially with many new houses being those small skinny houses.


















  • the government has given the go-ahead for the first step towards complete digital sovereignty in the state, with further steps to follow.

    The term digital sovereignty is very important here. If a public administration uses proprietary, closed software that can’t be studied or modified, it is very difficult to know what happens to users’ data:

    We have no influence on the operating processes of such [proprietary] solutions and the handling of data, including a possible outflow of data to third countries. As a state, we have a great responsibility towards our citizens and companies to ensure that their data is kept safe with us and we must ensure that we are always in control of the IT solutions we use and that we can act independently as a state.

    Digital sovereignty seems to be the primary impetus, so this might go far. Saving money is secondary.
