alt Hacker NewsThe subtitle “Across Europe, there have been increased concerns about the bloc’s reliance on American tech.” is false and really an economic chamber.
The author has no basis for this claim, factually or otherwise .. maybe a small tiny group would love to see this happen, but EU is happy like rest of the world minus China to enjoy the products made by great American software companies.

(Technically only five countries in the EU in this survey, but the five most populous countries, and presumably other countries generally agree)
