politico.eu'"Governments want to move away from “platforms over which we have no control,” says Dutch minister.'
So they'd prefer to have something they can control. How telling. I don't think they are just referring to their own communications.
They just don't trust the yanks any more.
I'm more concerned with the fact that they don't trust anyone outside their clique, like most politicos. Any attempt to distribute power away from them is described using abusive terms and phrases.
