Back on topic. I believe this is opt-out in my country (if it didn't change recently), so unless you specifically state that you want all your organs inside to feed the worms or to get more ash for your urn, you're automatically possible donor.
EDIT: Just checked, it's still opt-out. It's opt-in only for minors and incapacitated - their parents/legal representative have to agree.

I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.
no, I will when I'm 18 tho
like others have said, I'm dead, idgaf
Yeah, I'm registered, just in case the agency in charge manages to not fuck up that day.
Not yet. As soon as some people in my country get to know I am registered, I am dead meat - worth my weight in gold. It’s dangerous.
Due to my own medical reasons, I'm not.
Yeah, but they aren’t going to like my liver.
Yes. I check the organ donor box when I renew my driver's license. If I'm in an accident then I don't need 'em anymore. Let someone else use 'em.
No. Ineligible.
No. I used to do that. I stopped doing that after I registered for be the match and had gangs subsequently stalk and harass me. I had people threatening to shoot me over the past several years, which may or may not be tied to registering, but many of their threats were motivated by my blood type. I’m the universal blood type donor. I’ve had several people, throughout my life, make comments about having me killed for my organs since I’m everybody’s type. I know it was just people being cruel, but I really feel more at ease by not being a listed organ donor.

I think so? I should check though.
Friends and family know to strip me down for parts as aggressively as possible.
No.
No. This world made me selfish.
My ID says I am, but I'm not registered anywhere else. Why did I have my ID say it? Because I felt like it that day when I renewed it. That's literally all there was to it.
Real talk though, I almost don't think I should be donating my organs. Why should the hospital get for free what they're going to charge a family hundreds of thousands of dollars for?
No. There are too many people on this planet.
