People, with #Greenland raising awareness of our massive 24/7 dependence on US clouds for vital services, I made a list of what (government) stuff would break here under US sanctions.

People, with #Greenland raising awareness of our massive 24/7 dependence on US clouds for vital services, I made a list of what (government) stuff would break here under US sanctions. It is EXTREMELY depressing. Can I suggest that people also make a list like this one for their own countries? It is getting quite some traction here: https://berthub.eu/articles/posts/dashboard-amerikaanse-afhankelijkheden/
Who what the fuck, would be Able to Work if Microsoft or Google cut service. They are almost everywhere. It is extremely rare to find someone not dependent on them.

@ChrisUplus so the best would be to buy licences and produce it here in EU @EUCommission @bert_hubert
@energisch_ @ChrisUplus @EUCommission @bert_hubert or do what the #USA did in at least one case and "P.R." #Cina routinely does and threaten to void any #patents if there won't be any #TechnologyTransfers and irrevocable licensing for domestic demand.

@bert_hubert Risk-adverse Europeans are already cutting ties with US tech. It has the added advantage of punishing the worst tech-bros for financially supporting Trump's fascists who are feeding on the souls of Republicans. [Edited when I realised the Republican Party never had a soul.]
@woo @bert_hubert Nice bonus there. Speaking as an American, we need our "allies" to stop putting up with our shit and start cutting off ties. Working on the internal pressure, maybe if we're lucky also losing most of our exports would be a big enough deal to slow(?) the fascist takeover.

WRT Canada's reliance on American companies (AWS, Google, Cloudflare, etc) for online government services
️It's depressing. Not going to bother with an analysis;
is screwedI recommend we find a way to collaborate with EU efforts to build online infrastructure independent of American control.
@puzzled @bert_hubert We need to talk anyway...
