The world has finally become aware of the harmfulness of data collection by various companies. Microsoft has been ordered to remove from its operating system the collection of any information that is not directly related to the maintenance of the system's functionality. There are also strict limits on the collection of data from social media and other software, which force users to respect their right to privacy. Requirements have also been set for social media algorithms so that campaigns that incite harassment and channels that encourage extremism do not get in the way. Elon Muskin X is completely banned in Europe because he has openly stated his intention to manipulate the elections and supports extremist parties. The EU has increased its independence from the U.S.A. so that the actions of this volatile state do not cause much economic volatility. In fact, the EU has been able to increase its influence and cooperation with countries that have also suffered from the ruthlessness of the leaders of that great power. The EU has also recognised the Palestinian state and guaranteed its independence. Israel has been subject to sanctions similar to those imposed by Russia during the war in Ukraine. Fortunately, the EU decided to increase its support for Ukraine and gave full authority to use its weapons where they are needed, including on Russian territory, and Ukraine was finally able to take back the territory it belonged to. Climate change has finally been taken seriously. Lobbyists of large corporations are mostly ridiculed for attempting to overturn climate-friendly laws that apply to them in the hope of short-sighted profits. Large plantations have brought a large number of new diverse forests to Europe. Reparability is required for technical products: Each part must be easily and reasonably priced. Sustainable products will benefit from tax breaks, while those found to be rapidly degradable will face massive increases in taxation. This is why both refrigerators and tights are durable nowadays. A great deal of effort has been put into people's mental well-being: A healthy person doesn't rage. EU countries are required to provide a certain level of healthcare at a price that is also accessible to people on low incomes. The life of small entrepreneurs has been made easier, especially in countries where bureaucracy makes entrepreneurship difficult, even unprofitable, such as Finland. Small business is easy and profitable to do, even if it does not guarantee your entire livelihood.

In the future, people will be more equal and tolerant. Parties on the extreme right ceased to exist when people realized that populism and hatred only divide society and harm everyone. When all people are given the same conditions, regardless of gender or background, the enormous social and economic inequality in society disappears - the richest lost their assets through various efforts such as higher taxes for the rich and demands that they contribute more to society.

I would like every country to be sovereign in the year 2040. To decide fully on its own resources and to collaborate with other countries on the basis of their own resources and in the spirit of common profit for each party. I would like no more unwarranted elections to be canceled and all sorts of coups d'etats to be given that do not take place even in third world countries. I wish there wasn't a class of super rich people and one of those super poor people. Invest a lot in health and education. Amen!

By 2040, I'm imagining a peaceful future. There are no wars anywhere in the world, people pay more attention to each other. Without more advanced technology, 20 years will not pass, and artificial intelligence will gain more and more ground. I believe in the power of personal relationships.
