    Europe is too reliant on US tech. And the US in general.

    I say this as an American who moved to Europe and became an EU citizen instead. You - we - should not trust the US for one moment longer. EU based alternatives are needed for all US services and products!

      The problem is that big organizations requires big support firms behind. The biggest players has that. There are few organizations that can support OS but they do not talk very well the same language as high leaders. The problem comes from both sides: dumb leaders (not only in EU, sorry people…) vs highly developed lobbies.
