        True.

        It would be great irony if Mr Trump accidentally frees us from Microsoft and azure through all his bumbling.

      I wouldn’t say so at the moment. Looking it up a bit, this seems to have been a motion essentially requesting the government to look into alternatives. But this is also what the expert said in the article:

      Bert Hubert, a Dutch technology expert who has advocated for reducing dependency on the U.S., said: “This is only the first step in potentially doing something.”

      Honestly, our current cabinet is in such a bad state (not that it’s been in a good state at any point of its existence), I don’t expect them go get anything done.
