An excellent layman’s recap on the dependency (in terms of defense, but also economy) that Europe has on the US tech. What happens if we cannot have US-owned operating systems in our mobile phones? Or we cannot buy American brands for our hospital computers and servers? Will you still receive emails or direct messages?

I will continue my quest to move out of gmail to something European. Unfortunately, Portuguese SAPO is no longer an alternative, so I will have to go for something German, Dutch or Swiss.
