If anyone reading has proof of M$ spying on the German government they could whistle about, right about now would be a great time to do it ;)
So I would love if this would be the case (German gov using open soruce software) but tbh this reads like marketing bs to me, sorry. “Aims to transform public administration”, “providing Germany’s public sector with a secure and open-source alternative”. Yes, good. Nice. Cool. But are any government agencies are actually using it? I feel like if they wpild be they’d surely name them …
they tried already using open source in several occasions for smaller administrative municipalities.
all failed and went back then, wasting loads of time and money. so for sure marketing gag
Are you sure?
Just about two weeks ago they launched OpenDesk.

Element chat is integrated in this suite and is allready vastly used by the federal government, the army,…
I think no government anywhere else has embraced open source as much as Germany does.
The are building their sovereign cloud and different states, Schools, government departments, hospitals… are joining.
They’ve put their money where their mout is by creating a sovereign tech fund.

They move slowly, as governments do, but they have a goal and a plan. It’s not easy to switch and running contracts have to reach the end of their term but when these contracts are over the move will be huge.
so right after they murdered millions they now pretend to be different
how hypocritical
Right after? What year is it?
I’m sure Germany is not a monolithic entity. It has different departments for different things and if you don’t agree with them politically or dislike their actions, none of that has anything to do with them using tech for general administration purposes.
Ironic
