In any case, I wouldn't call divesting from US tech infrastructure a futile endeavour: wouldn't a move to EU services (especially given that the author is based in the EU) allow benefitting from the EU's data protection / sovereignty legislation? That alone would be an net improvement over the laissez-faire approach that US has about people's data, aside from at least trying to go against the flow of technological centralization around the US.
Now, you can debate whether those protections are effective or not, but at least it's something to build from.

If very visible, then it must be rather simple to pick some sources to support this. Looking forward to reading what you have to share there.
