      We’re in a strange situation right now, but there will be court judgements killing the illusion of all those privacy shield constructions. It’s currently illegal to transfer personal data into the US and everybody is still cruising on inertia. The landing will be rough.

    I mean , sort of. Let’s see the world work without the Dutch company ASML, makers of the lithography machines that make the advanced chips.

      Well said.

      TLDR: what is recommended due to our complete US IT dependecies is:

      ○ Our administration uses software and hardware that we ( should fully) control.

      ○ Some data and processing simply cannot be dependent on foreign infra.

      ○ Health, Law, energy, transport… Critical stuff should be isolated from this mode of failure.

      ○ Important documents must always be accessible offline

      The article introduces the situation, the why’s and dangers and gives us recommendations as how to reduce this critical dependency .

    emails

    So tired of people pluralizing mass nouns with an S. I couldn’t finish the article.

      That’s the correct plural of email though. Unless you talk about the technology itself, “email” is the equivalent of “letter”, not “mail”.
