Citizens’ initiative Digital Independence
Building critical digital services on top of Finnish and European actors is a necessary step in strengthening self-determination, security and democracy. Finland must ensure that the basic rights of citizens, democracy and national security are not dependent on actors who are under the purview of governments outside the EU/EEA.
The citizens’ initiative proposes legislation requiring that the digital services of Finland’s public administration be implemented using solutions provided by Finnish and European actors.
Note: You need to be a Finnish citizen with the right to vote to sign the initiative. The citizens’ initiative service by the government unfortunately does not support English. You can translate the original Finnish text e.g. with your internet browser’s translation functionality.
