Small print: With exceptions

Why are there exceptions for Anthropic, GitHub and GitLab?

> Anthropic is a US company...But it satisfies something else, the sense that the organization building the thing has given serious thought to what it’s building and why.

This reads like a weak excuse. Mistral and Mistral Vibe exists and even if you don't like them, there are many non-US harnesses (Qwen code) that are available.

> GitHub stays in the picture for one specific purpose: public-facing NPM packages and issue tracking for open source software.

First of all Codeberg exists.

Secondly, at this stage relying on NPM and the Java/Typescript ecosystem is quite frankly waiting for a disaster to happen.

This post isn't absolute on moving their digital stack to Europe as it has not one but three exceptions too many.
