    The irony of this is that it’s all due to the ridiculous US CLOUD ACT that was brought in under Trump’s first term… and made US Cloud providers a potential national security risk. If they’d never brought it in, or not stipulated that it applied outside the US borders, then I doubt there would be this push and US Cloud Providers would be part of these build outs.

    As others pointed out; 

    > Most of the American tech giants’ dominance is due to a combination of incumbent advantage and network effects – but there’s no real secret sauce for the vast majority of their products.

    > Why the US tech industry supports Trump baffles me. 

    > Software and cloud storage relies on trust more than any other business. It’s crazy to me that the tech industry backed a guy who is going to end the entire world’s trust for America and American companies.

    This could strengthen digital sovereignty, but it also raises questions about cost and innovation.

    Feels like Europe finally said thanks for the cloud, but we’ll build our own less Amazon, more sovereignty.

    The investment required to build a European cloud would be in the billions.
    And its not just storage and compute. Gcp and Amazon win because of the product suite, pub sub, cloud monitoring, data products, the whole shebang. It would take thousands of engineers years to get there. Europe needs to start now, and the only way initially is probably getting governments to commit to use it initially.
