In which I share my experience at the United Nations' Open Source Week, discussing the critical issues around digital sovereignty and open source discourse. I'm a little disappointed that discussions focus on the localization of technology rather than addressing fundamental questions about privacy and human rights. Please don't view sovereignty purely as a geopolitical power play - this could lead to exploitation under the guise of nationalism. I'm calling for a definition of human rights in technology and urge that meaningful outcomes should take precedence over mere geographic considerations.
