Denmark is literally the best country
*disclaimer; the specifics of your socioeconomic circumstance may differ wildly from my super privileged nordic “ive only ever lived in 3 of what is considered the top 5 countries of the world” background; https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=FEKEjpTzB0Q&pp=ygUYd2VsY29tZSB0byB0aGUgZ29vZCBsaWZl
I like Denmark but they’re the sole reason Russia gets to circumvent the sanctions since 2022. Don’t forget that.
That view doesn’t hold up against the facts. Denmark is legally blocked from acting alone but is actively working to dismantle the very system it’s accused of ignoring.
Under international law, the Danish Straits are a global highway. Denmark cannot legally stop ships in “transit passage” without a clear safety or environmental threat. This isn’t a Danish policy; it’s a binding maritime rule that Russia’s “shadow fleet” exploits.
Far from being a passive observer, Denmark is taking concrete action. Just this month, Denmark helped lead a coalition of 14 nations to coordinate new measures against the shadow fleet in the Baltic and North Seas. At home, it has cracked down hard, introducing legislation to raise prison sentences for sanctions violations to as high as eight years—one of the toughest stances in the EU.
The problem isn’t Danish inaction. It’s the sophisticated, global evasion network Russia has built, which no single nation can defeat on its own.
I’m a twin.
Do we share? Do we need to both sign off on this before our likeness can legally be used?
This was like the discussion I had with my twin over those dna services. We both agreed that it is not fair or right to force the other twin to have their dna used basically so neither of us would ever use the service.
Guess I gotta chat again over this though we look different. Ah birth trauma. I’m going to guess we’ll just agree no one uses our likeness ever. Anywhere. Somehow!
Unfortunately, the article doesn’t really say why it’s necessary with personality rights already in place, or how copyright would apply differently.
“In the bill we agree and are sending an unequivocal message that everybody has the right to their own body, their own voice and their own facial features, which is apparently not how the current law is protecting people against generative AI,” Danish culture minister [said].
I watched this video report/interview earlier. She found out her voice was being used in British railways as the announcer without her knowledge or consent.

Just come on down to the government run face scanner and have your features verified so we can be sure no one ever makes a copy
