🇺🇸🇪🇺 Trump has the power to shut down the internet across Europe, and the EU can do nothing about it, — Politico

➡️ More than 70% of the EU cloud market is in the hands of American companies. This threatens the stability of government, industrial and personal services — in the event of a confrontation.

➡️ In response, the EU launches the EuroStack initiative — 300 billion euros to create an independent digital ecosystem.

➡️ So far, Europe is technically dependent and politically vulnerable.

at last some good news. No airbnb, no uber, no google using our data...
Here is the way I took to ditch all US apps since Vance speech in Munich:
Windows -> Ubuntu
Office -> Libreoffice
Whatsapp -> Skred
Gmail -> Tuta, Proton, Mailo
Thank you JD. At least you were to some extend useful.

@martin Thanks... I will give it a try!

I highly recommend Nextcloud for file syncing across devices (and much more). It takes some technical skill, but not much. It doesn't have to cost much, either.

Skred? never heard of it, and made by "Sky Fucking Rock", cool!
