Don Marti<p>The risks of using the <a href="https://federate.social/tags/Eurostack" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Eurostack</span></a> are software development risks: can the organization build, buy, or run open source to fill the functionality gaps between the Eurostack components you have and the USA-based competition? All stuff that can be worked on by people who are at the end user organization, or can be hired.</p><p>The risks of _not_ using the Eurostack are harder to predict, and not something that an end user organization can have much effect on.</p><p><a href="https://www.wsj.com/world/europe/europe-prepares-for-a-u-s-trade-fight-834934be" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">wsj.com/world/europe/europe-pr</span><span class="invisible">epares-for-a-u-s-trade-fight-834934be</span></a></p>
Miguel Afonso Caetano<p>"In Europe, discussions are coalescing around an ambitious idea called EuroStack, an EU-led “digital supply chain” that would give Europe technological sovereignty independent from the US and other countries.</p><p>The idea gathered steam a couple of months before Trump’s reelection, when a group of business leaders, European politicians, and technologists—including Meredith Whittaker, the president of Signal, and Audrey Tang, Taiwan’s former minister of digital affairs—met at the European Parliament to discuss “European Digital Independence.” According to Cristina Caffarra, an economist who helped organize the meeting, the takeaway was stark: “US tech giants own not only the services we engage with but also everything below, from chips to connectivity to cables under the sea to compute to cloud. If that infrastructure turns off, we have nowhere to go.”</p><p>The feeling of urgency has only grown since Trump retook office. The German and French governments have embraced EuroStack, while major EU aircraft manufacturers and military suppliers like Airbus and Dassault have signed on to a public letter advocating its approach to “sovereign digital infrastructure.” In all the European capitals, the Danish government adviser says, teams of people are calculating what elements should be folded into the effort and what it would cost.</p><p>And EuroStack is just one part of the response to enshittification. The European Union is also putting together a joint defense fund to help EU countries buy weapons—but not from the US. The EU’s executive agency, the European Commission, is patching together a network of satellites that could eventually provide Ukraine and Europe with their own home-baked alternative to Starlink."</p><p><a href="https://www.wired.com/story/enshittification-of-american-power/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">wired.com/story/enshittificati</span><span class="invisible">on-of-american-power/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/USA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>USA</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Trump</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/BigTech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BigTech</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Enshittification" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Enshittification</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Monopolies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Monopolies</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Oligopolies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Oligopolies</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/DigitalSovereignty" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DigitalSovereignty</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/EU" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>EU</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Eurostack" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Eurostack</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/PoliticalEconomy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>PoliticalEconomy</span></a></p>

Even though the software itself is open and can be modified, the infrastructure and support around it — such as funding, legal protections, or compliance — can still be influenced by where the project is based or the entities involved. Moving to a more independent, EU-based model could help mitigate some of those risks and offer more sovereignty in the long run.</p><p>Furthermore, the concern remains that the U.S. government could potentially order a company to introduce a hidden backdoor into the software, and the corporation might not be free — or even able — to disclose this information. This is a serious issue, especially as political pressures grow. In a broader sense, the U.S. is increasingly resembling more authoritarian regimes like Russia or China when it comes to digital policies, where control over software and data is prioritized over privacy or transparency.</p><p>Even though FOSS allows you to examine the code, the reality is that no one can continuously monitor the entire system at all times. The complexities of modern operating systems make it incredibly difficult to scrutinize every line of code, especially as it evolves. This is why reducing dependency on American corporations and jurisdiction could be an essential step toward ensuring true independence and security.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/EU_OS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>EU_OS</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/EuOS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>EuOS</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/EuroStack" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>EuroStack</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/DigitalSovereignty" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DigitalSovereignty</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/Europe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Europe</span></a></p>

Erik Jonker<p>Great blog about EuroStack, we need to BUILD !<br>"We need to think about this first and foremost as an industrial project. With some public support but one where “industry” (the supply side) needs to be given the incentive to build, and the opportunity to scale and expand. We don’t need more “events” and pensive stuff about “our European values” and “democracy” around digital sovereignty. Industry should do its thing, or nothing will happen. Wake up."<br><a href="https://cristinacaffarra.blog/2025/06/26/european-digital-sovereignty-is-an-industrial-project-everyone-else-get-out-of-the-way/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">cristinacaffarra.blog/2025/06/</span><span class="invisible">26/european-digital-sovereignty-is-an-industrial-project-everyone-else-get-out-of-the-way/</span></a><br><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/EuroStack" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>EuroStack</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/EU" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>EU</span></a></p>
