It's quite simple - the last time the world woved without a binding contract to protect Finland from Russia, Finland had to cede large parts of their country in the end. And this is still very present in the minds of most finns, despit

Strange, I never had to send a single FAX in my life in germany. Especially not for any cloud offerings located in EU/germany. I would LOVE to see proof for that.

I do not remember where I read it, but looking at it from the outside, I always have to think back on the quote: "Republicans don't like people who are different and want them to be somewhere else. Democrats don't like people
