I live in a neighborhood, when I walk the dogs, I care for, on public roadway & public grass areas in-front of everyone’s property, I am video recorded (without any control of my image, customers of the cams & the cams’ service providers have access to my image & there are websites broadcasting the videos submitted) by almost every single neighbor’s Cam(s) at each of their gates.

These type of privacy violation(s), that have become so everywhere in The USA, UK, China & Etc., are they problems in EU, Scandinavian Countries & Denmark?

They rank very low in privacy, just a few spots above UK or US.

It was also Denmark's turn recently as the rotating EU Council Presidency (July-December 2025) and their persistent push for mass surveilance, data retention and chat control has not helped their image.

That does not sound good, But Wikipedia is a horrible source! Information is regularly changed to BS, by the politicially Right! Do you have a Independent & such good source (like a ‘Free Speech’ programming, ‘The Freedom Side’ ‘Break Through News’ or more farther Independent) of the same information? Or even a Denmark Independent & such media outlet?

Wikipedia isn't a source. It's a summary as a starting point at best.

But the good thing is: they actually list sources.
