πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ‘πŸ» β€œThe deepest function of sovereignty is that a government defends its own continued existence and its exclusive right to authorise force. What we watched instead was governments declining to do so, in public, with the world's richest man openly calling for their imprisonment.”
new from me: on this week's riots in Belfast, Musk, and European states openly declining to defend their own sovereignty.

What does it even mean to build digital sovereignty infrastructure when states themselves don't want to be sovereign?
