They can’t respect gdpr, let’s juste fine thème into oblivion
- Microsoft was meant to make EU-specific changes to Azure by last month
- ECCO has issued its second amber report against Microsoft
- The company must now engage in Plan B
Worse, they’ve cut off all services to the International Criminal Court. Due to Trump’s sanctions. All gov and judicial services in NL continue to rely on Microsoft’s cloud tech… Literally the dog in the house on fire meme…
And as an even worse cherry on top, they did this just 2 weeks after they announced they would not honor requests by the Trump administration if they thought those requests weren’t legal. They vowed to sue whenever such a thing happened.
Literally weeks later such a situation presents itself and they don’t even give anyone a heads up or try to fight it. They just roll over like the traitors we always knew them to be.
Europe needs it’s own cloud fast. Unfortunately we are lagging behind around 10 years in my opinion. But are working hard to make up ground in record time.
We might not be there today, but we will get there. And when we do, the US will never see any of our money ever again. Fuck the US and fuck Microsoft
This is the thing: You can vow to not honour any illegal requests by your government as much as you like, but all that is void and null the moment you are in a country that can make you (as an employee) simply disappear or throw the book at you if you don’t comply…
Open source is an option…
Good. Now get out, Microsoft.
