  • Every system, public or private, references this number. In practice, this allows authorities, and anyone with access, to track a person’s movements, habits, and history across virtually every aspect of society.

    No it fucking doesn’t you dumbass. I give my CPR to an employer, that doesn’t give them access to anything besides confirmation that I am who I say I am. Nobody but the medical system has access to my health records and even that is wound up in numerous laws and explicit-consent forms.

    There is no cross-contamination of data, it’s just an ID.

    In Denmark, any public employee can search your CPR number in the national system and instantly pull up everything the state knows about you. If you work in healthcare, you have access to all health records, yes, everything, down to the embarrassing detail you once mentioned to your doctor about that spot on your buttcheek.

    I’m not gonna read the rest of this, because they’re literally lying. That’s not how CPR works. Fuck off.

    Denmark has many flaws you could point to, why make shit up?








  • The Matrix foundation didn’t embrace and extend anything, as they were always in control of the spec.

    EEE applies to when corporations (notably Microsoft) embraces projects that aren’t theirs and takes them under their wing, expands on functionality which attracts all the users and makes them the sole developer of that functionality, which kills the old, open forks. Microsoft then kills their version of it, and the whole thing dies.




  • It doesn’t support being flashed to a low-end commercial router like you’d do with OpenWrt, no. Those tend to require special firmware and binary blobs, hence OpenWrt has to specifically support a model or it likely won’t work. It’s like flashing Android ROMs.

    OpnSense is great if you’re in the market for totally owning your own router, though. You can get an N100 box with 2 NICs off of ebay or something and slap OpnSense on that. That’s arguably more FOSS than flashing OpenWrt to a cheap commercial router.
