Since time immemorial, the concept of sovereignty has defined control, whether for nations or legal authorities. Today, the rise of AI is forcing a global reckoning around one of the most important and misunderstood aspects of modern computing: data sovereignty. First there was GDPR, the Global Data Protection Regulation out of the European Union; then the CCPA, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA); and now, there are nearly 150 countries around the world with related laws and regulations on the books.
