Sovereignty is incompatible with free flow of capital (a major part of free trade).

You allow foreign capital to come in and buy as much of whatever it wants, then someone outside your borders controls what that part of your economy produces, how it produces it and where the profits go. Given that capital gives political power, that means the more this happens, the more control people who don't vote in your country have over your own government.

For fuck's sake. Granted, Doctolib already kicked privacy in the balls before, it's a travesty that they're even legal.

Fuck. My GP requires Doctolib now, I've been putting off creating an account because I don't trust them with my info. At this point I'm just hoping I don't get sick

I already changed doctors because of doctolib. It's a hassle but trust is key when interacting with any medical personel. If they don't care about me enough to protect my most sensitive data, I can't trust them with my health.

Have medical associations developed their own alternative yet?

They could save money, Doctolib subscriptions for medical profesionnals are NOT cheap. And avoid giving patient information to a large corporation with foreign investers.
