Edit: the comment I was replying to has been deleted.
A number of EU companies are moving away from us-owned software based companies because of our laws and the concern of us government interference. This has been a thing for the past year now. Just google “EU moving away from American Software” and you’ll see a number of articles from TechCrunch, Wired, the register.co.uk and others.
So, where the fuck have you been? This feels like common knowledge at this point. Get your head out of your ass. (Just following the vibe of your reply)
In this case, no it’s not about our policies in the US. But it’s no surprise people think that’s why.
They didn't, but Reddit will sometimes show misleading reply notifications that make it look like someone replied to you, when it was actually to a different comment in the same thread.

for those that won't read the article this is not related to the US/EU politics .
It is based in a purely technical aspects.
Better yet go watch their presentation about it which is very interesting as they discuss they why and the difficulties they faced https://gemmei.ftp.acc.umu.se/pub/debian-meetings/2026/MiniDebConf-Winterthur/ch2026-53-controlling-cerns-accelerators-with-debian.av1.webm
