Good.
Fuck Microsoft
Under Trump 2.0, some Europeans fear that storing their data in the bit barns of Microsoft, Google and AWS is no longer safe
It never was, and all the laws that were installed to make this appear legal were nothing but meaningless fig leaves.
These idiots forgot that an “america first everyone else last” president might alienate a pretty big part of their customer base, i.e. the rest of the world
It’s not even America first. It’s Trump and maybe the .00001% first and fuck everyone else.
Microsoft is an American company. America is broken and corrupt. No country can trust America anymore.
Microsoft promising to build infrastructure in the EU directly hurts American jobs. :-D lol Trumps Tarrifs that scared the world have responded by defending themselves, US companies boosting their economies by building there and then the US jobs will be needed less as the work they’re doing now witll be in the EU.
Trumps Tarrifs have directly boosted the economies of others while directly hurting ours and it has absolutely nothing to do with the tangible goods that Trump cares about.
Someone should tell Trump that Microsoft is out sourcing cloud business which is worth BILLIONS.
Amazon too, tell him Jeff Bezos is the biggest cloud seller on earth. Elon would jump at the chance to deal with his, uh, rival?
Trump probably thinks that’s woke libs creating clouds in the sky to fight climate change.
Just checked it’s worth almost $800 BILLION.
Thinking that needing to build infrastructure that other countries provided is an economic boost is exactly the line of thought that the Magats use to justify Tariffs. It’s not true. The resources spent building server rooms and datacenters would be better used elsewhere.
Sucks that EU privacy protections only apply to corporations, and the governments are going for full government backdoors in everything possible.
I’m SO happy I chose to switch to Linux as my daily driver.
Oh no! Anyway…
Europe broke their own procurement laws in order to choose Microsoft for the cloud, its good that tariffs were enough for them to finally follow their own laws.
Why would they be nervous without any serious competition for 365?
Well if american tech were trying to provide a service and accumulate customers which they take care of then this would not be an issue. Their current method feels more like rape.
Step 1. Fuck Around
Step 2. Find Out
Im sorry, this is stupud! Customers are saying, “this service is unsafe, i dont trust my data isnt being used against me!” And their response is, “Dont worry, we habe a 5 point plan to make shure we have the uptime of a waffle-house! Our product will be so easy to access and it will stay that way forever!”
I’m sure their EU lobbyists can fix that.
These politicians may not like the US anymore, but everyone likes money.
