"He doesn't need tanks to steal Greenland. He can just shut off Denmark's access to American platforms like Office365, iOS and Android and brick the whole damned country. It would be another Strait of Hormuz, but instead of oil and fertilizer, he'd control the flow of Lego, Ozempic and deliciously strong black licorice"
Damn right, digital sovereignty is Europe's Achilles' heel. It is time we wake up and take this seriously, we cannot remain a vassal state of an unreliable partner like the US.

Talking to a lot of folk around this, it does feel like there’s some real energy and drive now. And money. My worry is that if the US go through another ‘sane’ phase after this, we might start to relax back into comfortable helplessness.
