Hoe soeverein wil je zijn? - Bert Hubert's writings

- Sovereignty involves a trade-off between benefits and costs, and it's useful to break down the concept into three key aspects: confidentiality, agility, and resilience.
- Confidentiality concerns who can access data; many government documents lack proper risk analysis before being exposed to foreign entities like Microsoft and the US government.
- Agility is about the ability to make independent choices; reliance on foreign suppliers can reduce influence over local needs and innovation.
- Resilience is the capacity to repair and maintain systems during crises, as seen in Ukraine's recovery from a hack; remote support may fail in such scenarios.
- Each aspect requires separate consideration for informed decisions on sovereignty, as they involve different trade-offs and solutions.
