like what?

I will just provide 2 examples, but you can find a lot more.

If your data is in the hands of a nation that uses this to block you from your data you should do something about it. [1]

If your data is in the hands of a nation whose representatives are threatening your territorial integrity (greenland) you should find alternatives.

  • Right, but next time your data may be threatened by some European idiot rather than one from the US.

    To quote from my other comment:

    > In my view, data can only be protected by its rightful owner. And for that, we need education, not regulation.

    • maybe, but education won‘t solve the issues I outlined above. So in interest of european security I‘m all for regulation of this.
