We have that in Sweden and Finland: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Principle_of_public_access_to_...

The principle says that information is non-confidential by default, rather than the other way around.

We can request almost any information held by government agencies, including copies of communication like email and documents.

One thing that has surprised European acquaintances is the fact that this includes government-held info about individuals, e.g. address and tax returns.

Although this has been eroded, at least in Sweden.

When I was in Sweden many years ago I was very surprised that you could just call a phone number and they would tell you the name and address of the person or company a vehicle license plate was registered to.

Current Finnish governent is trying hard to hide what they can, unfortunately.
