I'd love to see MS force a showdown over this: since the EU is dumb enough to run all their computers on Windows, MS could force them to make an exception for them, or else. What's the EU going to do when all their government computers suddenly shut down? Toss Satya in jail? He's in the US. You don't make yourself completely and utterly dependent on someone and then tell them how to behave.

- Grishnakh 10y agoThat's too bad; hopefully under Satya's leadership they'll stop this pathetic capitulation, and show the EU government who's really boss. It would be a great lesson on the dangers of outsourcing your critical infrastructure to a foreign corporation.
