Agree. If it was a perfect world then governments would fund and contribute to open source project to make sure there are good free solution to keep your data private (at least from being collected and sold to some random companies) and make sure they won’t go down.
Sadly I don’t think it’s really happening…
I don’t understand governments. They want to be in a position where they are not controlled by single giant tech companies, yet they do not do anything for their freedom. Here in Germany from time to time the government, or parts of it, want to switch to Open Source (Linux and Office) and start funding it. But then after some time they give up. If they would fund the projects now, then later it would be a much easier task to switch entirely.
