Swedes rebelling against a cashless society (2018)
I recently moved back to Sweden after living 4 years in Germany. I don&#x27;t have any cards, and I don&#x27;t carry a &quot;smart&quot;phone anymore; in Germany this didn&#x27;t cause any trouble at all and I was far from alone.<p>Much of the current Swedish society is currently closed to me, I know of three shops and one cafe in the (200k people) city center that accept cash. Some of it has been gradual but it changed dramatically during the time I was away.<p>Believe me, this is not the kind of world anyone really wants to live in. It&#x27;s all very convenient until the crap hits the fan, putting this much power in the hands of any authority is a recipe for disaster. Not to mention those who have no choice.
