This case shows the growing dilemma that many countries now face. In a global supply chain economy, the most capable #digital #platforms are rarely national
- They are built, operated, updated, and legally #governed elsewhere
For #sensitive domains such as #defense, #intelligence, #public #safety, and #critical #infrastructure, this creates a structural tension between performance and control.

@paka@mastodon.scot Is only a problem for governments that understand the issues *and* wish to protect their voters. Ours (UK) doesn't. I assume they do have advisors who understand so it seems the politicians think the disadvantages (to us) are out-weighed by the advantages (to them).
