Where it comes from

Sources

Views are my own and/or based on public sources. This page lists every source referenced on the site, grouped by page and chapter, so that a statement can be traced back to where it comes from.

Two kinds of entries. Cited sources are quoted as the page cites them: figures, frameworks and articles I drew on. Reference links point to the organisation, specification or documentation a name on the page stands for. Where a citation has no link, none is given. Within each topic, primary sources come first (legislation, standards, specifications, official publications, my own research), then secondary sources (analyst and press coverage), then product and organisation pages. Updated 7 November 2026.
