Data sovereignty and social media sovereignty is something I’d love to see worked on more. I mean, the shift is already happening to a larger degree as you know if you’re reading this comment. It’s a sad state of affairs when the average Joe needs to consider these things - or maybe it’s a wake up call to our relative complacency over the past decades? I prefer to keep my data outside of the US. Canada for some, specific EU countries for others. But bills like Chat Control are even threatening other nations’ long-standing privacy norms. The burn-out will be real for some, those who didn’t care may not until it directly affects them. Others will hopefully find a balance they believe suits them. The floor is lava! Have to keep jumping around!

    I don't know how these laws work when everything you and your environment use is self-hosted, but where I am it's the one thing you can do to control your data, by law. Not even a warrant allows checking personally owned or company owned devices. However, most, if not all, institutions and companies rely entirely on US based tech hosted in the US. That shit needs to end.
