Large domestic corporates pulling the plug in a war seems unlikely to impossible as wars tend to go with what are effectively command economies.

It's not just pulling the plug. It's serious economic disparity between regions and legally mandated espionage as well.

If the EU had own large corporate hyperscalers that would be an issue there for the EU?

Yes it would still. Which is why I think the process is misguided. I mean look at Hungary which was a near miss. It needs to be resilient to state failure as well.

This means that the entire idea of a corporate EU spanning hyperscaler should never exist.

		State failure is something the Europeans have experience in dealing with. That aside: how much would that cost in lost economies of scale?
