Microsoft LEAKS European Regulators to USA - Netherlands Responds by Going Sovereign

23.05.2026 ☁️ Microsoft shared identifying information about Dutch regulators with the US House of Representatives. 🇳🇱 The officials worked for Dutch agencies enforcing the EU Digital Services Act. ⚖️ The case exposes the central problem with American cloud providers: US law can reach European data. 🚨 Dutch officials warned that named civil servants could face travel bans or personal sanctions. 🇩🇪 The Netherlands had already signed a cloud migration deal with German provider STACKIT before the leak became public. 🛡️ KPN and Thales are also building a sovereign military cloud for the Dutch armed forces. 🌍 The deeper pattern is clear: Europe is not leaving American cloud because of theory — it is leaving because the risk just became visible. #eu #germany #Netherlands
