"The very short version: It has now become clear that European governments can
no longer rely on American clouds, and that we lack good and comprehensive
alternatives. Market forces have failed to deliver a truly European cloud, and
businesses won’t naturally buy as yet unproven cloud services, even when
adorned with a beautiful European 🇪🇺 flag, so for now nothing will happen.
This means it’s time for industrial policy, which requires politics to be
proficient in “industry.” Such proficiency is the only way to develop policies
and plans that don’t go off the rails (which, unfortunately, can happen in many
ways).
With a coherent strategy (see below for a suggestion), governments and industry
can rapidly improve the cloud situation, allowing Europe to once more manage
its own services without American prying eyes and without fearing the
consequences of sanctions & transatlantic disputes."
