Swedish, too. Enormous difference.

It's not just about government services - e.g. when you buy something in the UK you often need to provide your address (which you might not even remember when you need to cancel some service). In Sweden you just use your "bank-id" (also used by the government).

That contributes to the flawed perception that we'll sleepwalk into disaster.
