    Well a stronger version of digital sovereignty that requires open source with appropriate governance and appropriate licensing could also mean serving every user’s interests.

    Of course interests of the European governments also probably align much better overall with the interests of European citizens than the US government interests and they can be influenced much more by European citizens democratically.

      Open source? One that’s developed by people all over the world, including US, China and Russia? And Linux, whose lead maintainer is an American citizen, and which is developed in the large part by US and Chinese corporations? Doesn’t sound very sovereign to me.

        I mean I did not even specify any particular open source project that you could infer any particular nationalities developing from so it’s pretty bad faith trying to straw man me like this. Furthermore you seem to have completely misunderstood what I was saying.
