@gregsarjeant that was a wonderful narrative of experiencing Edinburgh. You might want to consider coming back in August when the Festival and Fringe is on and every possible venue has multiple theatrical and comedic performances per day

[KevinMarks] Thank you! I would desperately love to come back for the Festival and Fringe. It sounds incredible.

What is digital sovereignty?
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "digital sovereignty" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "digital sovereignty is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
[tantek]
Do we think it's more than /own_your_data?
#
ehmry
depends, it could be personal sovereignty or national sovereignty
#
[tantek]
Good point, context dependent
#

What is technological self-determination?
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "technological self-determination" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "technological self-determination is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
ehmry
oh, I like that better
#
[tantek]
Both of these phrases are used by Molly in the above linked session's audio recording
#
ehmry
digital sovereignty is a politcal initiative in europe so it's become an overloaded term
#
[tantek]

digital sovereignty is in the context of the indieweb a reference to having control over your digital existence, especially online, such as your identity and data, and is also a political initiative in Europe https://indieweb.org/digital_sovereignty

digital sovereignty is in the context of the indieweb a reference to having control over your digital existence, especially online, such as your identity and data, and in a broader context also known as network sovereignty, referring to nation-states asserting governance and control over their networks and Internet traffic at their borders https://indieweb.org/digital_sovereignty
