I am an organ donor myself, but having it be opt-out does not sit right with me.
For me, an opt-in model where it is hard to avoid not making an active choice sounds like the best solution.
Like if you have to renew drivers-license, ID-card, passport etc, you have to fill out an organ donor form. This encourages people to make a choice, which I have no problem with.
The main problem today (at least in Denmark, which is the system I know best), is that people want to be organ donors, but just never get around to opting in. 90% answer that they are in favour of organ donation, but only 22% have actually registered their choice in the central organ donation registry.
