F’n A! F dem CIA stooges!
Why cant we be more like switzerland…
Considering the lunatics at the wheel in the US atm I reckon more will follow.
Relying on alien technology never sounded right.
Switzerland is contradictory in many ways. At the same time as they go for on-prem or sovereign cloud (laudable), they are passing laws that chase away privacy first companies such as Proton (less than optimal).

This is a legit issue of national digital sovereignty.
Likewise, it’s been similar to the idea I’ve had of having every US state run its own official mastodon instance: host data and provide updates/messages, be a reliable data source, but offer minimal services of your own. Be as read-only as possible architecturally. Ensure that you control your platform’s data source.
I agree that governments should be using open self-hosted platforms to disseminate information. No one should have to sign up for Twitter to see their local police blotter, snow cancellations, etc.
