To demonstrate just how quickly the public perception of #DigitalSovereignty has changed, this EU article argues that the problem is misunderstood. It states that "digital dependencies are immense and independence is unreachable", and "it will result in a reduction in cooperation between companies and governments". A Canadian government policy statement made similar arguments in November of 2025.

Article: Why the EU should stop talking about Digital Sovereignty

Over the course of today, at a leisurely rate, I think we'll do a roundup of European efforts regarding #DigitalSovereignty and #DigitalIndependance. Europe and Canada have both struggled with this issue, but it's fair to say our allies across the Atlantic have been far more progressive and Digital Sovereignty has far more awareness with citizens and individual governments.

We need more stories like this being shared in the open. You can criticise some parts of the decisions made here, but that's not the point. Someone tried, learned and shares the result. *That's* the point.

"It's effort worth doing. But it's effort."

On building a digital startup based entirely (or, as much as possible) on European tech.

Streaming now: the #Nextcloud Hub release! See also blog & press coverage that's going live.

My take: this release is a big step for #DigitalSovereignty. Designed to be THE open source platform for #autonomous digital work places. A true #DigitalCommons, open for anyone to built upon - and the result of a large community effort itself.

And, practically, a ton of improvements and features!

Now I'd like to hear what *you* think!

@MikeDunnAuthor the Israeli jews, having experienced the cruelties of fascism themselves, have learned and improved on Germany’s Nazi-ism South-African apartheid and their walls would even impress the most evil Soviets and Chinese regimes. Currently the Jew is single most #fascist race in the entire world and should be fought with everything the free world has. #antifa #antijew #surveillanceCapitalism #digitalsovereignty
