I'm not sure EU will resent the US. Why do you think so? By that logic Russia will start resenting China and try to decouple real soon. EU needs US for the nuclear umbrella. Their nukes are not enough for MAD equilibrium with Russia. Also, a weakened Russia that defers to China is actually very good for the West. It is not so great for China posturing either, as China is perceived as standing alone against a unified West.

It's bigger than Ukraine. It's that people just realized they are witnessing a new form of fascism in Russia and what it can do if ignored.

What a badly written piece. It creates a narrative simply by juxtaposing unrelated and inaccurate facts in the same paragraph. For example, Covid tracking or apps utilize phones location services, same ones that pinpoint phone location for road navigation. These apps were tried in many countries and found mostly ineffective and intrusive. This has nothing to do with phone hacking, NSO etc. Talking about Covid and Pegasus in the same paragraph without additional context just doesn't make sense. Mentioning Bennett and NSO CEO together might try to create some link that just isn't there either. Contrary to the picture painted in the article, most Israeli cyber companies, including most unicorns in this space, are dealing with defensive cyber (intrusion detection/prevention, anti-malware etc). The IDF unit associated with cyber is 8200. Unit 81 mostly creates new hardware/electronics. The Israeli officer who committed suicide while incarcerated wasn't an Israeli Snowden. The unofficial version/rumor is that he intended to start an unsanctioned cyber attack that would have exposed some secret capabilities. And so on.

Before pulling out, it might be worth it to try to charge for Android, or some freemium model. If half of EU Android users will pay 10 euros a year to get in-car integration and youtube access, it should offset any EU fines.
