The deputy prosecutor of the International Criminal Court on Friday lashed out at U.S. sanctions, arguing they effectively put top court officials on a par with "terrorists and drug traffickers." https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/12/06/world/crime-legal/icc-deputy-prosecutor-interview/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #crimelegal #icc #donaldtrump #us #warcrimes

Was passiert, wenn ein einzelner Mensch die volle Wucht digitaler Abhängigkeiten zu spüren bekommt? Genau das erlebt aktuell Nicolas Guillou, Richter am Internationalen Strafgerichtshof. Wegen der vom ICC ausgestellten Haftbefehle gegen israelische Regierungsmitglieder wurde er von den USA sanktioniert – und findet sich plötzlich in einem digitalen Rückfall in die 90er wieder. 📵

Let us not forget the International Criminal Court in The Hague. Not only its director, Mr Kahn, also one of its judges, Nicolas Guillou, is under restrictions by the USA.
That means no US company may provide him any services. He's got his credit cards suspended and all accounts on major internet platforms. "It's like returning to the 1990s". Fortunately we have such committed judges that don't give in to the pressure.

The #ICC joins a growing list of EU-based institutions that has abandoned or is abandoning US-based FascTech and move towards EU-based open-source solutions instead.
The reason in this case isn’t only saved budget.
Karim Khan, chief prosecutor for the ICC, lost access to his Outlook mailbox in May 2025 after delivering the arrest warrant against Netanyahu - on top of getting his bank account frozen.
Imagine a world where UN officers for the highest criminal court can’t do their job because a single American company can coerce their decisions by simply cutting access to their digital lives.
The ICC is therefore switching from #Microsoft 365 to #OpenDesk, a FOSS solution mostly developed in Germany.
The fall of American Big Tech will happen one step at the time, one revoked license at the time, one lost user at the time.
After 15 years spent evangelizing that there’s no technology outside of their clouds, people are finally realizing that solutions are possible - and those solutions both save them money and restore their sovereignty and ownership over their digital lives. The same tipping points that led to their success can also lead to their demise.
There’s an eternal technological pendulum between centralization and decentralization that keeps swinging whenever the disadvantages of one end start outweighing the disadvantages of the other end. And it will keep swinging, no matter how big the American FascTech has become.
