Questions raised over EU contingency plan for US software dependence

Original: @ kimvsparrentak Dank voor je reactie, maar is er wel een overzicht van de kosten, een exit-strategie of een noodplan. W

A reply to Dutch EU policymaker Kim van Sparrentak is questioning whether there is any overview of costs, an exit strategy, or a contingency plan for European reliance on American software services. The concern is that the US could exclude the EU from its software services, as reportedly happened to the International Criminal Court, prompting calls for Europe to prepare for such a scenario.

Why now: Fears that the US could weaponise its software dominance against European institutions, as it allegedly did with the ICC
