Dutch Parliament: Time to ditch US tech for homegrown options

Let's first see if the actual government follows suit - this is just a call by Parliament. And even if the government follows suit, we'll have to see how long it will take and how well they will do it.

But still a good first step.

I have a goal to get rid of all US based software. I already replaced some services but I will continue to look every chance I get.

This is the best thing to ever happen to EU based tech companies.

Yeah, that Military-Industrial Complex thing that we hated?

Well, now we want one.
