About this episode

Martin and Chris discuss the critical issue of digital sovereignty and its implications for users relying on foreign service providers.

In this episode Martin and Chris tackle the important subject of digital sovereignty. Something becoming more and more important if you don't want to wake up one morning just to see all of your mails and mailboxes vanished just because some foreign provider decided to cut off your mail server access (same goes for file cloud storage, office software, etc. Many other use cases do apply). But how to tackle this conundrum? Fear not, dear listeners, as usual the inlaws got you covered. So don't miss this episode!
