I'm not sure conflating US corporations and the US government is really logical. Microsoft isn't a startup from the US, it's a worldwide corporation. Same with Visa/Mastercard and others. Whatever buffoonery happens in the White House doesn't really get reflected out across US based organizations. It's like being worried about Siemens stability during a German economic downturn or political upset.

I think this has much more to do with rising nationalism. (I know the EU isn't a country. It's just the best word I can think of to fit. ) It's not like Denmark is saying they plan to use technology from the global south, Asia or are open to options. It's an attitude of "we want to support European companies". That's not inherently bad, but I fear this is just another expression of this isolationism that is becoming more popular in Europe. That's not to say it's exclusive or unique to Europe, but just recognizing the ways it shows up.

The US government can require a US company lots of things. After POTUS declared that he wants Greenland I can totally understand Danmark wants to get rid of everything US.
