  2. The Cloud and AI Development Act 'should embed a sovereignty provision that curtails the current “sovereignty-washing” practiced by US hyperscalers in partnership with European firms. Here, sovereignty means fostering genuine competence and capacity inside the Union, rather than relying on complex legal tricks that depend on foreign-controlled technology.'

  3. A hot conversation I overheard with people from work… WhatsApp might start charging you for using it… and there’s a potential new law that European governments are allowed to read all your messages, including those on apps like Signal.

    Signal has announced that they will leave Europe if this law takes effect.

    Of course, I need to know what we can do about this to keep our privacy… or is this the end of our free speech?

    Would Threema and Wire be affected as well?
