German officials have had a whole lot of groundbreaking visions for as long as I can remember. The visions were never the issue but the delivery. I remember Peter Altmaier claiming in 2017 that in 2021 any government service will be accessible online lmoa. To this day I regularly have to print out PDFs and send them via registered snail mail or fax (yes, I actually have a fax)

In the 2000/2001 the defense minister (Rudi something) wanted to have a direct communication channel to all officers of the army. They contracted the Telekom (aka T-Mobile). The result was a parallel modem line network with extra PCs next to the well established communication network of the army. It was called Rudiphone and a the most stupid project ever.

So yes, visions where always there but the implementation was indeed always a story
