I'm all for critiquing China where it makes sense but this just seems like the same national security measures the West has taken in the past (Huawei 5G anyone?)
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?
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.
