  29. Mullvad VPN. Based in Gothenburg, Sweden.

    No email required to sign up. No name. No logging. You get a random account number. Pay with cash mailed in an envelope if you want to. EUR 5/month. Same price always. No annual plan upsell, no influencer discount codes.

    In 2023, Swedish police showed up at Mullvad's office with a search warrant. They left with nothing. There was nothing to take.

  35. Buying European software is not about nationalism. It is about jurisdiction.

    Your data is governed by the laws of wherever the company is headquartered. If that is the US, your data is subject to the CLOUD Act and FISA 702. If that is the EU, it is subject to GDPR.

    You do not have to understand every legal framework. You just have to choose the jurisdiction you trust. The product follows.

  36. Which category should we expand next on only-eu.eu?

    Current gaps we are aware of: AI tools, design software, CRM, developer tools.

    But maybe you are looking for something else entirely. We built this directory for people who want European options. So: what European software category do you actually need?

    Reply or boost so others see the question.

  40. In 2025, the EU fined Apple EUR 500M, Meta EUR 200M, and Google EUR 3.4B under the Digital Markets Act.

    A 5% digital services tax across the EU could generate tens of billions per year.

    The US response: President Trump threatened tariffs on countries applying digital taxes, calling them "designed to harm American technology."

    When a tax on profits is framed as an attack, ask who benefits from the framing.

  41. Update on only-eu.eu.

    130+ European products. 33 categories. Available in German and English. Hosted on Bunny.net (EU CDN). Analytics via self-hosted Plausible (no Google).

    No sponsored placements. 12 products have affiliate links. The other 118+ link directly to the product page. That is the entire business model.

    If you know a European product we are missing, reply or open a suggestion on the site.

  42. In April 2024, the US reauthorized FISA Section 702 with expanded scope. Any US company that "touches" communications infrastructure can now be compelled to assist surveillance.

    Meanwhile, the White House removed PCLOB members, leaving the oversight board without a quorum.

  43. AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud hold 70% of the European cloud market. All European cloud providers combined hold 15%.

    SAP and Deutsche Telekom are Europe's largest cloud players. They hold 2% each.

    We outsourced our digital infrastructure to three American companies and called it modernization.

  44. Honest question for the timeline.

    What EU-based software have you switched to this year? And what was the moment that made you finally switch?

    Reply with the product name. If it is European and we do not list it yet, we will probably add it to the directory.

  45. Between 2004 and 2014, Apple routed European profits through Ireland at an effective tax rate of 0.005%.
