### AI overview

This opinion article argues that critical Dutch government ICT services and communications are being moved rapidly and quietly to Microsoft cloud servers under US law. It calls for greater political scrutiny, warning that the shift could increase dependence on foreign providers and weaken Dutch and European IT capabilities.

### Source excerpt

De hele korte versie: stilletjes maar in hoog tempo verhuizen cruciale ICT-diensten binnen de Nederlandse overheid naar met name Microsoft-servers onder Amerikaans recht. Dit neemt zulke enorme vormen aan dat de ICT-kennis binnen de Nederlandse overheid, maar ook binnen Nederland zelf, snel afkalft. Ook is deze beweging dodelijk voor onze eigen Europese industrie, waardoor we straks echt geheel hulpeloos zijn. De overheid mag volgens eigen beleid weloverwogen naar de cloud verhuizen.

### AI overview

This opinion article discusses how organizations decide whether to keep ICT tasks in-house or outsource them. It argues that prolonged indecision can lead to the loss of internal expertise and recommends making deliberate decisions while retaining a smaller core ICT team.

### Source excerpt

The short version: organizations often hesitate for many years before outsourcing tasks, particularly in the field of ICT (Information and Communication Technology). During those years, valuable ICT employees leave because constantly justifying their own existence is frustrating. In the long run, something will eventually go wrong, making the decision to outsource much easier: "We can't and don't want to do this ourselves anymore." However, by hesitating for so long, you have created the situation yourself.

### AI overview

An opinion article argues that Europe has already lost significant control over telecommunications infrastructure and should work to regain it. It discusses concerns about Huawei equipment for 5G, including surveillance, service availability during conflict, and digital sovereignty.

### Source excerpt

This article is part of a series on (European) innovation and capabilities. In a break from the usual GPS/Galileo, DNA and C++ posts, here is a bit on 5G and national security. It turns out that through PowerDNS and its parent company Open-Xchange, we know a lot about how large scale European communication service providers work - most of whom are our customers in some way. In addition, in a previous life I worked in national security and because of that I have relevant knowledge of how governments (your own and foreign ones) "interact" with telecommunication providers.
