The loss of privacy in the data worries me immensely. I would be amazed if there are not significant public/open data analysis opportunities into government strategic planning which in effect reconstruct content never meant to have left a secure facility.

> data analysis opportunities into government strategic planning

To be fair, governments can already ask companies to give them access to their data. Now given that most companies rely on BigTech for pretty much everything, it means that the US can access to all that and use it for whatever they want (e.g. help one of their big companies win a contract). This is already a strategic risk that has existed for years (decades?).

As a hypothetical example (I don't know what Airbus uses), let's say Airbus uses GMail and Teams for communications. The US can access internal communications of Airbus through those US services (which would not be allowed to say it even if they wanted to) and leak information to Boeing, helping them win the contract.

AI just makes it worse, and again the biggest AI companies are in the US.
