La confrontation sera inévitable.
La Maison-Blanche vient de publier sa stratégie nationale de cybersécurité. Le document, bref et direct, mérite une lecture attentive — non seulement pour ce qu'il dit sur les ambitions américaines, mais pour ce qu'il révèle sur la position de l'Europe dans l'ordre numérique mondial.
Le vrai message à l'Europe
Le document s'en prend aux technologies étrangères qui “portent de la censure, de la surveillance et un biais idéologique intégrés”. La formule vise ostensiblement les plateformes chinoises. Mais elle s'applique avec une inquiétante plasticité à toute juridiction qui imposerait des contraintes aux géants numériques américains — au premier rang desquelles l'Union européenne.
L'Europe n'est pas l'adversaire désigné. Elle est quelque chose de plus inconfortable : un allié dont les choix souverains gênent, et qu'il faut ramener dans le rang.
La stratégie cyber de Trump n'est pas une déclaration de guerre à l'Europe. C'est quelque chose de plus subtil et, d'une certaine façon, de plus utile : une description lucide du monde tel que Washington le voit, et de la place qu'il y réserve à ses partenaires. L'Europe ferait bien d'en prendre acte — et d'y répondre à la hauteur de ses valeurs et de ses intérêts.

How long shall we still wait before demanding the same progressive move in the EU institutions and in our respective state or region ?

So, even UK tax service website and other UK government websites are hosted at AWS and has been affected by that global outage?
Okay, I can understand when tiny islands archipelago have to host few official pages outside, on closest "larger land" where "data centers" for hosting available, but UK? Is it really THAT expensive for a quite large state to put few server racks in a well-air-conditioned room with extra power backups?!

I was invited to share my thoughts & opinion on #FOSS at an event organized in #Tamilnadu last August. Representing @fsftn, I shared my view that #FOSS should be seen as an anti-imperialist tool to attain #TechSovereignity.
#Trump threatening #India with #TrumpTarrifs should be a wake up call to check our total dependence on U.S. for Technology.
P.S: I spoke in #Tamil #தமிழ்

Continuing the thread -
Moving relatively simple generic services such as file hosting, buckets etc. is somewhat easy.
A bigger challenge: to get away from the entire #Microsoft environment, the entire #Outlook+Office+Teams+::: package, and such integrated systems.
In #Denmark we are unfortunately very used to it- a dependency/addiction grown over years/decades, which will be harder to undo,#sovereignity

Interesting in more than one way:
ITK (#Aarhus Municipality's department for Innovation, Technology and Creativity, together with Culture and Citizen Services in Aarhus Municipality, are moving their #cloud hosting from #Azure to Hetzner.
In addition to making the necessary move from the #US to #Europe, this will "reduce cloud costs by as much as 2/3."#sovereignity
