MPs call for publication of secret documents that outline chronic risks from UK’s dependence on Big Tech
A cross party group of MPs has called for the government to publish classified documents that detail the “chronic risks” to the UK from our reliance on digital platforms and services, the dominance of global tech and the impact of AI.

The UK is over-reliant on foreign tech companies to run our systems.
The risk of interference from outside powers was recognised in debates about Huawei.
The same attention hasn't been given to US firms in the new age of geo-political instability.
We can't be left in the dark about these risks.

“It is known within government that our dependence on foreign companies is a national security risk but the details are being kept from the public. We have a right to know what the consequences of years of pandering to Big Tech mean for the UK.
The Government must be transparent about the risks and show how it is taking steps to make the UK’s more resilient to foreign interference.”

️ ORG's @jimORG calls for a Digital Sovereignty strategy to protect the UK’s independence and grow its economy.
The goal is to invest in Open Source tech that strengthens control over our digital infrastructure.
To do this, we must end the secrecy around our dependency on foreign tech firms.
