It seems that running my own mail server since 20 years, having my own web server since 10 years, my own Mastodon instance since 7 years, 23 domains (all hosted on European servers by European hosting companies), my own forgejo instance and build machines since 2 years and a complete homelab with all my digital "goods" like pictures, movies, music safely stored offline wasn't a bad decision after all 😉 My personal #DigitalSovereignty, built with #OpenSource

Leider ist der Begriff "Cloud" mittlerweile komplett verbrannt. Denkt daran: Nicht nur die großen Hyperscaler wie Amazon, Microsoft, Google oder Oracle bieten "Cloud"-Dienste an. Es gibt in Deutschland digital souveräne regionale Rechenzentren, die sich dem Datenschutz und der Informations- und IT-Sicherheit verschrieben haben. Schert diese nicht über einen Kamm mit den Hyperscalern, sondern unterstützt sie und sprecht mit ihnen, eure Lösungen zu hosten. #digitalsovereignty #datacenter

Ich halte es für dramatisch, dass in diesem Land weiterhin US-amerikanische Cloud-Dienste in kritischen und sozialen Bereichen verwendet werden dürfen. Wir machen uns dadurch mehr und mehr erpressbar. Dass der US-Diktator nicht vor allerlei möglichen Repressalien zurückschreckt, sieht man heute wieder hinsichtlich #hateaid. Von digitaler Souveränität muss man nicht konstant sprechen, sondern sie umsetzen. Endlich mal tun und nicht permanent herumlabern. #digitalsovereignty #europe

Why does the US security policy sound like the worst from the time of colonialism?

@blogdiva Another reason to go down the "digital sovereignty" route that European organisations of many types are following.

We need a digital world based on properly curated and reviewed components - software, firmware and as well as hardware. Preferably open source for all three.

You don't like the way that Linus Torvalds manages the Linux kernel?

Well there is always the "Windows AI North Star" approach.

At least there is still a choice.
