Europe faces a major vulnerability in the face of a possible US internet disconnection in the wake of Donald Trump's comeback. Reliance on US cloud computing giants such as Amazon and Microsoft raises concerns about European data snooping and control over digital infrastructure. European politicians and experts are calling for home-grown technology alternatives and initiatives, such as EuroStack, to reduce dependence on American technology. However, implementing these plans is proving costly and complicated, and transatlantic relations remain a sensitive factor in these efforts.
