    I would like to add that foss is very strong in europe as well.

    Due to our ambitions in being privacy respective and libertarian for our software the communities thrived.

      I wish the commission would know this instead of sabotaging privacy all the time. Because I firmly believe that Europe only has a prosperous future when it fills the vacuum of soft power that the rampage going US left after 9/11. Being a safe haven for dissidents, cryptography and open source technology is the way to go imho. Europe can’t compete financially with US or China, but it can be a place where innovaters come to realise their visions while having huge quality of life.

        This. In all facettes.

        This should be the niche were europe can be a real opportunity. Unfortunately in reality I think this is difficult to accomplish due to the economies being under pressure with other economies as well.

        This shift is no easy task.
