🔍 Lagarde in Vienna: Europe has too little data centre capacity for its own demand, and the gap grows more than sixfold within a decade. The risk is not outage, it is renegotiation. 👉 #FuturePrep #DigitalSovereignty

After Europe and Africa, APAC is now pushing for digital sovereignty. Given the speed of corporate and public IT, I don't want to predict what IT in 2028 and beyond will look like.

4) supports major projects such as AI data centres; and
5) keeps critical infrastructure operating under Canadian control and Canadian law. #datasovereignty #digitalsovereignty #nationbuilding

Carney said the gov. would help finance infrastructure that:
1) connects Canada “coast to coast to coast”;
2) gives Canada more direct & secure connections to Europe and Asia;
3) reduces reliance on infrastructure controlled by foreign governments or companies; #datasovereignty #digitalsovereignty

Rather, the proposal is for a Canadian-controlled, high-capacity backbone, the underlying fibre/satellite infrastructure that moves Internet traffic between Canadian cities, data centres and international connections. #nationbuilding #digitalsovereignty

It's an interesting thought that China won't replace US dominance in IT, because most countries are reluctant to keep outsourcing their regulatory design. It certainly shows that IT is more than just technology.

EU procurement reform could make open source more explicit in public-sector buying and strengthen licensing provisions against technology lock-in. The proposal is not yet law.

Cornwall's gigafactory plans prove European infrastructure can compete on sovereignty, not just cost. Open weights, open standards, and local control: this is how we build tech that answers to our communities, not foreign courts. #DigitalSovereignty #Cornwall #EUTech

Rappel des éléments aggravants :

Le #DigitalEuro qui aiderait à réduire la dépendance au dollar -> 2029 *si* tout va bien

#DigitalSovereignty -> 10 ans ? Pour une totale indépendance, peut-être jamais
On peut supposer que l'important c'est d'identifier & agir sur les infrastructures prioritaires

Stay nice to #Meta and all their related bros ... Otherwise you might experience the importance of #digitalSovereignty sooner than expected

I wrote a blog post reflecting on Jabber/XMPP, whether it’s ready for wider adoption, and how we actually get there.

PSA to IT decisionmakers: Digital sovereignty starts with open source. No locks, no gates, just freedom. Transparency and portability are the foundation of cloud native workloads, a key to owning your destiny.
