Tech sovereignty is going to be one of the most important international issues of the next few decades. The US has mostly lucked out so far, being the home of the overwhelming majority of major tech firms. But China has very purposefully taken steps to secure and guarantee their technological sovereignty, and there is movement in Europe to do the same.

Right alongside all the other aspects of individual sovereignty that society has chosen to abrogate.

China is blatantly ripping off the West in tech and non tech. Their rising middle class and population make it simple to copy and internally consume. Russia can do something similar because purposely segregate themselves.
