The very short version: it is madness to continue transferring the running of European societies and governments to American clouds. Not only is it a terrible idea given the kind of things the “King of America” keeps saying, the legal sophistry used to justify such transfers, like the nonsense letter the Dutch cabinet sent last week, has now been invalidated by Trump himself. And why are we doing this? Convenience.
Not even that cheap. It’s lock in, right? Cloud starts off cheap, gets expensive.
Cheap on the initial outlay for IT staff and systems. Pay for cloud instead and get locked in like you said.
