      It would be a great idea to “flip the switch”. Europe as a market is bigger than the US, so it would be suicidal for those companies.

      No surprises there. I work in IT and if the Microsoft and AWS reliance is on the same elsewhere as well, we’ll have quite jam for a while if all that is cut off.

      As someone who’s job it is to make the server and system changes, I still find it quite dreadful how even now there is still a push towards pushing everything to American cloud services even tho the political climate is making things uncertain and expenses are practically always higher than hosting things yourself. It’s not like we wouldn’t have the unemployed IT guys to manage the environments in this country

    4. Seeing how much Finns are adoring everything US American (way more than anyone else I’ve seen in Europe), I’m not surprised.

    5. The mayhem that switch would cause on the global market would not spare any country. US would have so much to loose in this scenario, that it is not plausible that they would ever use it. It is still good if EU would separate at least critical infrastructure from us platforms.
