FREEDOM TO EXIT

Summary from the TLDR Crypto newsletter

This article discusses the concept of data ownership and freedom to exit - the ability to transfer personal data from one service to another.

Three potential solutions include decentralized protocols that distribute data across multiple peers, local-first data which stores data directly with the user, and legal agreements that ensure a user's right to access their own data.
