    Some European government departments have already switched. The government is leading because they want digital sovereignty and they handle both sensitive government information and sensitive people’s information. Companies will just go for profit unless required to do something else, and only certain companies will ever need to switch when they handle sensitive data. Your mom and pop flower store doesn’t matter. Also they need European cloud companies to get rolling, which means they need customers, and the easiest and best customer is the government, which means it makes sense for the government to lead. You have this all backwards.
