Yes. We're not living in the world of some naive 90s internet libertarianism. If a country wants to maintain its sovereignty people need to collectively control their own infrastructure and have a state capable of doing so, unless you want to end up as a colony of US companies and the state department.


LOL. You're not talking about sovereignty (which would be the control of a state over its resources), you're talking about control of the populace. I'm perfectly fine with foreign businesses disrupting any state's ability to maintain control of its citizens. The more the better, as I see it.
