Bullshit.

In a paper society, the scale of demage one corrupt person can do to the sovereignty of a nation approach zero. As such, you can handle exceptional case of espionage in exceptional ways.

We are not talking about that either.

And yes, what I wrote is perfectly doable right now, with no more and no less than existing open source software.

It just remove most of
#USA ties over #EU sovereignty, so I'm not surprised it's going to be defined as impractical by US corporations and lobbists.

BUT I can ensure you that there are thousands of European corporations that could provide all the service currently provided by US
#BigTech if we managed to get rid for their unfair competition.

And in a couple of years, we would become competitive with US hyper-scalers too.

@giacomo@snac.tesio.it I asked in my blog post for respectful discussion, yet you throw around terms like bullshit. End of discussion for me. Thank you for your input, I will take it into account. But as you seem to prefer aggressive and discriminating language here, I refuse to continue to discuss.

Ok, sorry.

Let's replace "Bullshit." with "What you wrote is so obviously false and so much misleading that it doesn't seem written in good faith. Yet let's assume you have just been fooled by BigTech marketing and propaganda, and let's try to show you the issues in your reasoning."

@giacomo@snac.tesio.it And now you are accusing me of having a hidden agenda? OK. For the sake of clarity, I have added the working definition for Digital Sovereignty I use in my blog post. It's from https://policyreview.info/concepts/digital-sovereignty

Where did I mentioned any "hidden agenda"?
Tbh, I don't even care if you have one. I was just commenting on your misguided overconplicated framework.

You tried to argue that actual digital sovereignty is impractical with a reduction to absurdum "in a pure paper based society".

Such a comparison is wrong on so many levels, and so obviously wrong, that it doesn't seem in good faith.

Also, the whole
#OCT construction seems designed to blend the very concept digital sovereignty so that it doesn't exclude it's opposite, allowing digital #colonialism from #USA #BigTech to endure.

Obviously you might intend something completely different, but if the outcome of your resoning is compatible with any
#BigTech to keep accessing data not generated in the #USA, it's in steer contraddiction with #DigitalSovereignty.

Unless, obviously, the whole world is just a US colony, as
#Trump might in fact argue.
