US their trade policy is just another tool of imperialist coercion and control.

That said, I wonder if that means that Spain will lose access to all the US-based Big Tech services and tools? Because it would seem to me as if that was the case.

And if that's the case… tech sovereignty becomes even more clear of a choice for EU. 🍿
