That's a bit better but it shifts the question:

Why did they not mandate national (or at least EU-based) hosting and infra ?

It feels a bit insane in retrospect for such a critical digital service ?

Yet another AI company where the logo follows the butthole convergence rule [0] ?

As an aside, my favorite Sierra Entertainment logo version is probably the 1983-1993 version [1]. I think the design still holds up even today.

I received the email telling me I am impacted today.

Ironically it changes nothing for me as that same data had already been leaked by the French government agency that handles unemployment benefits a couple years ago. Silly me had not bothered deleting that account even after it was no longer necessary due to finding a new job.

Even more hours where people in Spain will have to wonder why their online apps/services are not working anymore I suppose.

Suing made Grooveshark disappear. I still miss Grooveshark's UI.

You should probably check out Wargroove on Steam. It's very close to the Advance Wars games in terms in terms of mechanics.

As far as technical resources are concerned, gbatek is probably your best bet:

You've outlined the steps but not named the process outright : This is basically establishing a dominant platform and then abusing the dominant position that comes with it.
