A quiet but deeply unsettling moment just shook the foundations of international justice, proving why Europe needs digital sovereignty - and most Europeans not too interested in tech likely missed it: The Chief Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court (ICC), a court based in The Hague and central to Europe’s upholding of human rights, suddenly found that his email account was shut down. The service provider? Microsoft. The reason? Mr. Trump…
So Trump tries to hamper the ICC through infrastructure. Mess with the email, and everything stops, right? That’s how he believes it works?
Hey, Trump, you may not believe this, but the ICC have these things called “legally defined purpose” and “established procedures”. I know you’ve recently proven that as far as the USA is concerned, those are just theoreticals that you think you can revoke at whim, but unfortunately for you, here in the democratic world they still mean something, as far as I know. No email outage will stop this show.
