Sovereign software would break the open Internet as it exists today. A lot more work needs to be done on open protocols before interoperation would work nearly as well as the products we have today.
Not to mention the colossal waste of effort in engineering hours, the disparity in quality between rich and poor countries, etc.
Reuse is good. I would rather see open data and open protocols too, but look at Cambridge analytica, a scandal that was a direct consequence of giving people control over their data!
