Good evening folks,
World Economic Forum has started in Davos and the world seems to be in a fragile state.
SpaceTime has taken initiative and built the blueprint for how we Europeans can take back our independence and restore sovereign control over our own soil.
Key points regarding our future:
1. We do not own our data at the moment, since most of it is in the hands of foreign powers. Data needs to be seen as the most valuable property one can have.
2. We have relied on our allies and other countries in a relatively stable geopolitical situation for decades, but things have changed dramatically: there is an ongoing major war on European soil. The US is threatening our close neighbours with military action and, in many cases, taking the side of our enemies.
3. We have the means, the expertise, and the willpower. What we need now is action.
Data sovereignty is one of the major topics being discussed this week in Davos, and I sincerely hope that we can set aside whatever might hinder our ability to work together as a united front.
I agree in principle, but breaking free from Big Tech will take at least a decade, likely much longer. Take Windows, for example: Europe’s entire public sector depends on it, and there is currently no viable alternative. In the private sector, I’d estimate that 70–80 percent rely on AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, Cloudflare, and other U.S.-based tech services, with no European alternative even coming close at this point.
No amount of willpower can change that reality. Even if we start today, we won’t be independent until sometime between 2035 and 2040.
Who are “WE”?
American government didn’t create most of those tech giants. They got created by the market, by the need, and being in the right place at the right time. You can’t just wish things out of thin air, not unless EU is actually itself willing to create and fund such things.
I am all for digital sovereignty, but american tech giants got created organically. It wasn’t by committee.
Data centers can be created literally by the committee, they are more or less natural extension of internet service providers. That’s the easy part. Operating system and software that’s also easy you have Linux and open source. But some other things, like social networks, yeah good luck with that. People go where there are other people. Nobody wants to be on the social network with few hundred total users.
I can realistically see EU creating its very own internet search engine, but I also see it bogged down in censorship and all kinds of political shenanigans that result in product that won’t really be interesting to people (because, yes, lot of people google eyebrow raising stuff).
EU wants something *right now*, which took literal decades in US to form. That’s not how it works.
Data egress is charged exorbitantly high, so migrating data out will be expensive. And that’s not even counting the whole process of building the infrastructure and migration process. It will take a lot of time and money.
Sometimes I wonder..Are we retarded? We spent years not following our NATO commitment of 2% only to make it 4% eventually.. We outsourced defense to NATO in order to save money, our industry to China to save the emvironmet and data to US in order to create 10s of thousands beaurocrats…..
i’ll take my agi first then do that. cause honestly thats a hard sell. i think many many people overlook the passage of time so many people just know life is short to worry about everything. once i have my agi companion that can sit and help me create things as long as lgbtq+ is fine and people have common sense of equality and adult content it wont matter.
as for not being reliant on others thats very true it seemed like the EU was its own thing yet it seems they have been falling for the behind the scenes puppeteering the world falls to. maybe this will wake them all up and get stuff into gear. cause beyond that only ASI will stop them in the end
If we want more innovation in the tech sector in Europe, than we need the proper laws that support start-ups.
https://www.eu-inc.org/ can be the solution.
Data harvesting is what makes US tech powerful. With strong data privacy laws in the EU, can the EU ever pull off anything like that in Europe?
