The chief prosecutor of the International Criminal Court has lost access to his (Microsoft) email and bank accounts. Prosecutions are faltering now. This all due to US sanctions. 'Microsoft did not respond to a request for comments'. Yet European governments are collectively moving their email and files to Microsoft, risking similar problems if they ever upset the US administration. apnews.com/article/icc-trump-s…

No government or public institution should use Microsoft, Google, or any other corporate provider for official and internal email. Why do they have that level of trust?

You cannot trust any US company anymore. Arguably, you never could, but the fact that so many EU companies and governments have trusted their entire tech infrastructure to companies like Microsoft is horrifying.

There are better, safer, EU-based alternatives. Opting for US-controlled ones is both lazy and stupid.

do they use Windows computers? Will they also stop working? I guess if sanctions then Apple are out too.

If they use Linux, etc, will the US go after any US based contributors to open source projects?
