“This article introduces the concept of #sovereignty-as-a-service to describe how Big Tech companies are strategically redefining digital sovereignty through their programs of cloud infrastructure. [...] Rather than sovereignty being exercised over platforms, it is now provisioned by them, on their terms. […] In this reframing, digital sovereignty becomes a service to be purchased, configured, and optimized through proprietary platforms.”

@fj the best way to make money has always been to sell a partial solution to a problem you created.
@fj Thx, gonna read this later.
A bit related to this: Matt Garman (AWS CEO) just had an interview with the german newspaper “Handelsblatt” and he praised a “very good relationship” with the Trump administration (I'm really scared of it, to be honest) and mentioned an EU cloud offering allegedly inaccessible to US authorities… that’s a repeated claim that absolutely contradicts legal reality (Patriot Act / Cloud Act).
