I just initiated the domain transfer from Cloudflare to OVHcloud, let's see how this goes.
The order process from OVHcloud was really confusing: I created an account during ordering and it just dumped me into the dashboard afterwards without showing me my order again. Obviously I ordered again and then had two orders in my dashboard, one which was not paid yet because they created an order that I should somehow know about without telling me that is now expiring someday (which was probably created because I created an account during ordering) and my new order which I paid immediately.
I think I've never seen a more confusing order process in my life.

Seems this ended up quickly at a global switch. To me, this shows more as a pre-IPO action to increase the share price that anything else. More drama, more attention, drive discussion, and so on.
On June 12, developers across Europe woke up to a 403 error. Not a bug. A geopolitical decision. ⚠️
The U.S. government banned Anthropic's most advanced AI models for European users overnight. No warning. No appeal. Just a kill switch.
If the infrastructure is American, someone else holds the keys.

When a U.S. export-control order silenced Anthropic's Claude Fable 5 across Europe overnight, it shattered the myth of the 'safe American cloud', and proved digital sovereignty is now a survival requirement.
Albania: Trump Family's $5.8 Billion Resort Sparks Massive Protests
