At least for the EU, i can understand. Managing infrastructure is not somethign the brusselo-cracy does, like not at all. They do regulation well, and lobbying management, so they are solely focusing on that. I see no reason why we don't have EU-wide public email, mastodon, documents, and now AI. That is not such a huge project and it would give the EU huge creds for actually creating european infrastructure.

The EU has their own mastodon instance at least. Only for official accounts but it means they are part of the federated network

  Then why are they spending so much on facebook ads: https://www.facebook.com/ads/library/report/ https://www.facebook.com/ads/library/report/

    Of course a government needs to run its ads/PSAs where its people actually are, even if they are trying to promote alternatives.

Not to mention the surveillance potential of government run email and document servers. Oh, and AI chatbots too. People will just give you everything you could ever want to know about them, and plenty about those around them too ("my coworker told me that she got an abortion"). They should be giddy at this opportunity!
