Obviously. Any European nation that doesn't treat America and companies ultimately under US political control a strategic risk would have to be asleep at the wheel. "Perfidious" is the word.
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)
Isn't this a good thing though? Europe becomes more self-reliant and less dependent on US technology, the US is able to refocus to the Pacific which is a more strategically relevant area, the anti-US people in Europe become happy, and the anti-Europe people in the US become happy.
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.
The US also profited an exceptional amount from selling arms & software to Europe, far more than the US was spending on military aid to Europe, which was largely contingent on trust and friendly terms.
Over a decade or so the US is on course to lose far more than it's saving with these changing politics.
If you taxed the rich and corporations like Europe does you could easily have social security. The rich in the US love making Europe the boogeyman that stole your social security, while they laugh all the way to the bank.
pdpi is right that the article contradicts it, but there's something to the underlying point.
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.
Smart. You very much do not want your nation’s security entangled with an organisation with such marked and explicit political stances.

The US-European alliance is on its deathbed.

Oh no. Now we don't get to subsidise Europeans' social benefits

German intelligence offices snub all software period, the specificity is just attention-grabbing journalism.
> Germany's domestic intelligence agency has reportedly chosen a data analysis system from France, instead of US-based Palantir.
That's the summary from the article, and directly contradicts your point that they're snubbing all software.
