Hi @bert_hubert it is fun that "we" might have some leverage here, but this isn't really #TechnologicalSovereignty.

The key problem with politicians talking about sovereignty is that they think we can be sovereign if we'd have European Googles and the likes.

But until we build truely #DigitalCommons, as you know well, with open standards interoperability, decentralised and distributed architectures and community-driven open source, we can overcome bigtech and maybe even preserve our democratic foundations.

Keynote opening Digital Commons EDIC: Moving beyond the Digital Uncommons - Bert Hubert's writings

Last Thursday, 11th of December, saw the launch of the new Digital Commons European Digital Infrastructure Consortium. In attendance were delegations from the launching member states (and the observers). Also present were the many forefathers (and mothers) of this initiative. Of particular note, the launch also included demonstrations of LaSuite software from France, as well as the OpenDesk software from Germany. The Dutch government showcased their amalgamated suite MijnBureau, which joins parts of the German and French initiatives.
