since the article mentioned this, since when can people in the scientific field simply share their research data without facing any consequences?

edit: sorry my bad, I realized my question was not making sense, I actually mean they can publish research data if the authority does not approve of it?

What sort of consequences do you mean?

I don’t think there is an authority in Denmark that could stop them, or would even want to. By default in most countries releasing any data is protected under free speech, unless the data belongs to someone else or is protected in some other way, such as if it has military value or is personal data covered by privacy rules.
What authority?
