• With respect to life, living "off the grid" is a nightmare or torture (no medicine, heat, clean water etc.) but that does not mean one must rely on it 100%, and 100% of the time. The same goes for projects and sites - as they may need hosting, ISP, underwater cables. But that does not mean accept total defeat with clown computing.

• Even self-hosting in the digital realm cannot be absolutely because Ethernet/LAN rarely suffice. But again, striving to lessen one's dependence on other parties is worthwhile as a goal to pursue. The "all or another" false dichotomy is pushed a lot by outsourcing profiteers and marketing charlatans of theirs.

• The US Army/military and other military giants connected to it (EU, NATO etc.) has made itself far too reliant on exports from BRICS, especially the C. An economy where greed reigns supreme gravitates towards sweatshop conditions and crackdown on worker(s' rights). Not only the workers are a casualty.
