Why Boundless supports Cyber Sovereignty
If you are reading this, we expect you to have understood the vision outlined by Boundless in the introductory articles »
The mission of Boundless restated
For clarity, Boundless is a non-profit pushing for freedom through technology. Its goal is to stop the collaboration between governments and corporations that could lead to the creation of an all-encompassing digital system of tracking and exploitation.
The primary concern of Boundless is not just the digital corporate monopoly, but the forces pushing corporations and governments together into a single system that is becoming techno-feudalistic.
Techno-feudalistic definition
A modern social system where monopolies control, censor and exploit digital platforms in a manner that mirrors the exploitation of medieval feudalism.
Boundless sees just as much a problem with governments as with corporations, as governments piggyback on those platforms to create a system of social control.
Boundless believes that technological efforts through Synapse alone cannot bring about the privacy and freedom that people need, since legislation can always undermine encryption and make access to technologies cumbersome or illegal.
Cyber Sovereignty
Cyber Sovereignty is a political philosophy that significantly changes the relationship between people and their governments, as it counters the government's ability to misuse the opportunities provided it by the private sector.
Cyber Sovereignty is challenging to understand due to its legal complexity, but a human-readable overview has been created. It's strongly recommended that you read all the articles in the overview to gain a basic understanding of this promising new system of government.
