In Germany we have the term "Zeitsouveränität" which means time sovereignty.
That term originally appeared to describe workplace conditions and biography.
However, nowadays it is mostly used to describe media consumption. You decide when to listen to news or watch a certain show, the same way you decide when you read the next chapter of a novel.
- DonaldFoss 10y agoVery nice. I saw the word "Zeitsouveränität" and knew the literal meaning but didn't realize it's modern usage. In reality, time sovereignty is the only worthwhile thing wealth gets us, because time is our most valuable resource, a non-renewable one at that.
- vog 10y agoOne particularily popular example are German podcasts of radio stations, which are advertised by "... zum zeitsouveränen Nachhöhren", which roughly translates to: ... for time souvereign listening.
