Stallman definition of #ComputationalSovereignty [1]: "The state needs to insist on #FreeSoftware in its own computing for the sake of its computational sovereignty (the state's control over its own computing)"

Economic aspects are here secondary:

"Losing this control in an agency whose mission is critical undermines national security.

Moving state agencies to free software can also provide secondary benefits, such as saving money and encouraging local software support businesses" [1]
