> Data Ownership as a conversation changes when data resides primarily with people-governed institutions rather than corporations.

This is a false contrast. Corporations are institutions governed by people - specifically a board of directors, elected by shareholders. They aren't governed by aliens nor are they self-sentient. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Institution#Examples , https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Institution#Examples

Perhaps you meant that you are against for-profit corporations where the customer (who stores data) has no vote in the operation of the corporation? If so, then say that and don't imply it.

People often use "corporation" as a pejorative, often in contrast to individual people. But they forget that a corporation is composed of people and ultimately owned by (some) people - but the kind of people that the writer does not like (shareholders, profit-makers, etc.).

It's funny you're using .com as the example, because:

> The domain com is a top-level domain (TLD) in the Domain Name System (DNS) of the Internet. Created in the first group of Internet domains in March of 1985, its name is derived from the word commercial, indicating its original intended purpose for subdomains registered by commercial organizations. Later, the domain opened for general purposes. -- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.com

Even when you're arguing against commercial organizations for storing personal data. Now you're just naming individual people as if they were companies.
