I have some feedback for OP: my personal website got 92% because there is a link to my X profile in the contact session. It's not like it relies on the service. Its just a contact and there are also links to other services such as self hosted matrix.

On the other hand my registrar is Namecheap which is in the US and your tool didn't checked for that. I think thats a lot more important in terms of dependance than a link to a social network so you could run a whois lookup to check what registrar is hosting that domain.

Good point regarding registrar. Thinking a bit further, there's also the top-level domain: if that's under US control (eg .com), it could still be yanked away from you.

This is a massive risk that will affect half the internet or so.

1. Link to X profile ≠ dependency on X. Will differentiate links from embeds in v0.2.

2. Registrar check is a good thinking. Already have some stubs in the codebase. Namecheap is US and could theoretically be compelled. Adding to roadmap.

Thanks!

While this is true, it has nothing to do with the tech sovereignty of the site itself.
