Palantir doubly so, since it has close ties to the current regime. (No, this is not a political discussion - it's simply about proximity to power, and the interests of said power)
The US-European alliance is on its deathbed.
Agreed, though the nuclear issue still has to be solved. IMO the EU needs a nuclear arsenal. Any future dictator from the east will keep on probing otherwise.
But, even IF the US-led over-dominance would be maintained, I really don't understand why my taxes paid, go into US companies. This model really does not work anymore after the USA allied with Russia (de-facto, if you listen to the orange king).
What's wrong with the British and French nuclear arsenals?
And where are the "EU" armed forces, and nuclear weapon supply chain, and military and civilian command structures that would be needed to design/test/build/test/deploy/use nuclear weapons?
It's not like tourism or cultural distance is going to disappear. All that disappears is the military entanglement, which to be honest, was mostly obsolete after 1991 anyway.
this was the ostensible narrative for almost a decade but in reality the US has since then, threatened Europe with the annexation of Greenland, invaded Latin America and withdrawn resources from Asia for a war in the Middle East, with energy market consequences worst for America's allies in the Pacific. (Japan depends almost entirely on the Gulf)
This has not been good news for the China hawks in the US, literally as we're discussing this the US president is in China and Taiwan seems to have completely vanished from the agenda. Far from directing resources against China and bolstering democratic nations in Asia the US is now emulating China, withdrawing from Asia to bully its regional neighbors.
> It's not like tourism or cultural distance is going to disappear.
I do not think tourism is an issue anywhere.

This is a possibility, but why would you discount other possibilities? The USA is saying a lot, but doing very little. Why are there still occupying troops in the EU? Didn't the USA announce how NATO is dead already? So why are there still troops?
I am very much not convinced that anything has really changed, aside from the rhetorics.

Over a decade or so the US is on course to lose far more than it's saving with these changing politics.
That's the summary from the article, and directly contradicts your point that they're snubbing all software.
The GFF lawyer applies the same black box critique to ChapsVision too, right there in the article. The constitutional requirement the courts are pushing toward, show your reasoning, prove it respects rights, is provider agnostic. So the BfV maybe solved the sovereignty problem and not the transparency one.
