I recently heard it said that ‘the market has spoken’ – which is why everyone uses Microsoft and Google.That doesn’t exactly sound very much like progressive politics. It suggests we believe the market should take care of everything in our societies. 1/2#DigitalSovereigntyhttps://techpolicy.press/almost-two-thirds-of-europeans-back-replacing-us-tech-poll-finds
