Not only that, but they have also moved 80, 000 National Health Insurance Fund Employees to open source alternatives replacing U.S owned Big Tech platforms like Microsoft Teams & Zoom.

It’s amazing to see the country take action, push for real digital sovereignty, & opt for open source solutions! πŸ‘

@Tutanota
I agree with @elduvelle

it's a very small part of what should be done.
Far from that, I wait to see which budget will be given for those tasks (and It's quite difficult In France right now on this purpose)

there is ONE important move that could be done to explain that France is wishing to leave GAFAM

President Macron could stop communicating on X ( but he doesn't and will not)😑

last things : should we talk about France dependencies when it comes to cloud ??
