Makes sense, you don't want civil servants sharing sensitive data with none vetted servicess.
I do feel for the civil servants that have to use Copilot though, it was a breath of fresh air to move to Claude Code when I did, and if Copilot is half as bad as the Google Gemini document integration, which loves to give you variants of "I can not do that". I get why they don't want to use it.
I couldn't see anything in the article about early vs late risers.
My impression when looking at this kind of research, is that it, like everything else around this subject in society. Is from the perspective. That early risers are the only valid type, and us late risers are anomolies, that should not be catered to, and our challenges are a moral failing.
For me living in Norway, one of the hardest things every fall, and that makes me depressed for weeks, is when one weekend, when the days are already getting shorter fast. One hour of evening day light gets janked overnight. It is imo. horrible.

Same! Though you have it way worse.
I live in Belgium, I mostly get up around 08:00/08:30. I already feel quite guilty for not making the best of use of daylight in spring and summer. Around the summer solstice, the sun comes up around 05:30 over here. I can't imagine it coming up at 04:30 in the middle of summer. (Which is probably already what happens in Norway?)
If you want to use the model for something, where hiring a Chinese national to work on these tasks is a no go. Using a Chinese model is going to be a problem as well.
Some tasks and industries are so sensitive, that countries will not allow you to risk, that the model is aligned with Chinese interests and not yours.
As someone who is a citizen of Norway and does follow our local politics.
I can say with a high sense of certainty, that this is not going to happen.
There is no political appetite to do anything this radical, and anyone trying to get this done.
Would run into a problems with an electorate that would view this a playing games with its money, and a political establishment, that could easily be even more horrified over this idea.
