- how many have personal domain name for their mails AND their messages stored at least also locally (i.e. OfflineIMAP/)?
- how many serve the smartphones they use but can't really own with contacts via CardDAV to hold such valuable information on personal iron?
- how many sync photos/videos if they care of them locally (no matter if via SyncThing, Immuch/PhotoSync/?
- how many have their transactions ALSO on their own iron, not just on the bank servers with the bank WebUI?
These are the most basic form of ownership most people fails to have in the digital world while have normally in the physical world. Than the domain name, as a postal address.
These days ANYONE should have a personal homeserver for hes/her own stuff, and actually essentially anyone have one (the ISP router-crappliance) only it not much powerful and they do not own it. That's the proof of general IT ignorance, which today means mere illiteracy because "computers" are the modern library tools and we know how illiteracy is harmful for the individual AND the society at a whole.

If homes are the analogy we want to use, then we should remember that some places have much stronger laws to protect renters, some places have housing co-ops, and some places have government-owned or government-subsidized housing.

Beautiful illustration by The Oatmeal of how “big tech” has enshittified the internet, only missing that $3,000 of that $10,000 “promotion fee” might be for your phone manufacturer because they insist. Or maybe the $10,000 promotion costs $15,000 to pay them lol.
