prefer open source and end2end encryption

... oh wait your premise disqualifies that.

Well Arabia and Russia are starting to force data being processed and stored in their territory by blocking foreign comm-tech. But i don't think that is a solution, that is just digital nationalism driven by fear of espionage and demand for the power of mass surveillance.

What "the world" should do is lobby against nation-states and mega-corps having their noses in everything, because it is a central building block of totalitarianism. Even if the state doesn't go all out authoritarian, it opens back doors that leave people vulnerable to abuse by bad actors.

This was probably my sentiments also, if you're not using open source technology, you're likely setting up for disappointment.
