They use LibreOffice, which is open-source. [0] That suite is part of the The Document Foundation [1] which headquarters are in Berlin, Germany. How is this related to Russia? [0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LibreOffice [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Document_Foundation
The article only mentions LibreOffice in connection with Denmark, not France.

Good for Lyon! Windows 11 seems the perfect vector for foreign espionage.
On "reciprocal" tariffs I think many countries are making preparations to wait it out while telling the current lot to fuck off. Look at Japan.
