You could recursively find lack of independence: You have your own website but its hosted on AWS You host your website on your own servers, but they're in $COUNTRY You have a guerrilla controlling a de facto state where your server is, but you still depend on the submarine cables. You have a worldwide totalitarian dictatorship so you can host your website freely, but you depend on the sun for keeping the servers alive.
