It's also defacto mandating that their CCP approved Spyware chips are in place
Spyware chips are far more problematic than just using boring old software. Why bother when you can just bundle the spyware into your own Linux distro?
Yeah! Can't they just get Apple and Microsoft to postpone updates for exploit those vulnerabilities? Oh wait...
Hi, Europeans! This is a careful reminder to use Linux. Step away from yankee companies.
You're getting downvoted but you are right, from a security standpoint Europe's infrastructure is dangerously reliant on an increasingly unpredictable USA. The status quo was fine while Europe and the US agreed on pretty much every foreign policy but it's becoming increasingly clear that the two blocks are slowly drifting in different directions. Eventually Europe's reliance on US IT will become a problem.
It's more like US guarantees are symbolic, at best. It should be obvious that Europeans don't have jurisdiction in the US, and vice versa.
With the stance the US has against anything foreign, it becomes increasingly impossible to trust both their government bodies - and their software industry.
Like when people travel to the US, I recommend they get a new cheap throwaway smartphone, because the second you're land on that US airport, you're forced to give up all it's data. Heck, even US citizens proper aren't safe from the TSA.
