Why Denmark is dumping Microsoft Office and Windows for LibreOffice and Linux

Alexander Farnsworth/Getty Images Denmark's Minister of Digitalization, Caroline Stage, has announced that the Danish government will start moving away from Microsoft Office to LibreOffice. Why? It's not because open-source is better, although I would argue that it is, but because Denmark wants to claim "digital sovereignty."

Characterizing my first attempt at copper-only passives
