As an American, who is entirely against the current administrations hostile behavior towards its allies, I’m glad that this debacle has at least spurred other nations to into separating themselves from America’s BigTech grasp. GDPR was only ever going to be a half measure as long as foreign governments continued to rely on American controlled infrastructure, and American made software and cloud services.
This is the kind of thing that should happen regardless of the temperature of diplomatic relations with the U.S.
And gently pull on the cable to slowly tow Greenland over to Europa where it belongs
Europa is pretty far though, I don’t think we have enough undersea cables to get there.
That is actualy good news.
The US spent decades telling Europe to trust the transatlantic relationship, then somehow managed to make a literal cable across the Arctic look like the more reliable connection. That’s an impressive achievement in diplomacy: when your allies start routing around you like a network failure.
Super IntelligenceSenile Ineptitude will do that to a country. Behave like a liability and single point of failure means people look to avoid you.Calling Trump “senile” downplays the traitorous duplicity.
At this point, he’s done so much shit that “ineptitude” no longer cuts it as a plausible explanation. Occam’s razor says he’s trying to destroy the US on purpose.
They don’t seem to have a problem using the current ~20 cables running between Europe and the US.
as an American, I approve this move. I’m not happy as we lose something, but our government is not sane and needs to be treated that way. i just hope fences can be mended after the fever breaks.
It will get sabotaged unfortunately :(
