US tech firms share Dutch regulator officials' names with Senate | Hacker News

Dutch lawmakers are probing how U.S. tech firms shared the names of Dutch regulator officials with the Senate.

The debate comes amid growing concern over the Netherlands’ reliance on American cloud and software providers such as Microsoft and Solvinity.

Officials and lawmakers warn that this dependence could weaken Dutch control over public-sector data, security, and infrastructure.

The issue has sharpened calls for stronger Dutch digital sovereignty across government IT systems.
