It's not just the data cloud, but the traffic as well. Cloudflare should be abolished too. Every website, that is put behind it, can have its traffic scanned by the giant.

same goes for the people/companies using "the cloud"
Did anybody ever doubt this?
Not really but due to the current US administration I think Europe is realizing they need more of their own autonomy back. That's why Germany and others are switching to open source options and I'm so glad to see it.
I don't know how they didn't realize this decades ago. Being dependant on a foreign nation is stupid even if an Allie. What is even dumber is Europe cannot get out of it. They are talking about using European vendors for PC purchases. Sure but who is making the processors and the hardware for those computers.
