Could have been cool. But even project like a digital medical patient journal that other countries had for 2 decades they have trouble with.
- rhatsf 2y agoThere was a certain NHS fiasco in Britain ... Apart from that, Germany has still some data protection left and Germans like their privacy. Which is the real factor that prohibits large data collection brokerages. Additionally, if every country goes into the digital fluff economy, nothing real is produced and you are even more dependent on China (and Russia for resources).
