for all people outside of US that said to me it was impossible to remove US (and showed to me their DNS request showing 90% of US).
i just managed to reduce my relyance on US to less than 10%
i strategicly removed any US service one by one and replaced it by open self hostable services.
Replaced network device one by one with opnsence that replaced all mirror of all service by eu one.
so it's possible, you just don't want to do it

Wer nutzt Molly?
Ich hab mir Molly installiert um Signal-Foss zu ersetzen. Wenn ich nun UnifiedPush verwenden möchte, fordert er mich auf einen QR-Code eines Websocket zu scannen. Da ich keinen eigenen websocket Server habe, stellt sich mir die Frage ob es öffentliche gibt die sicher und vertrauenswürdig sind.
Habt ihr da eine Empfehlung?

"Why #OpenSource #AI became an American national priority."
https://venturebeat.com/ai/why-open-source-ai-became-an-american-national-priority/
Short answer from Clément Delangue, co-founder and CEO of #HuggingFace: #China.
Part of the longer answer: "Every advancement in AI — including the most closed systems — is built on open foundations. Proprietary models depend on open research, from transformer architecture to training libraries and evaluation frameworks. But more importantly, open-source increases a country’s velocity in building AI. It fuels rapid experimentation, lowers barriers to entry and creates compounding innovation."
