Its a winner takes all and the winners have been decided 20 years ago here in the west. You need something like what China did with a closed off garden where their own thousand flowers can bloom and grow strong enough to compete on the global market.
China has a huge internal economy. You won’t be able to replicate that in many a country. At all. You’ll end up with useless, expensive, outmoded products that seem to only ever get worse. (Speaking from personal experience.)
True but to have fall back option for US big tech is worth the "waste of" resources. Imaging if the US does to the EU what it did to Huawei the EU would break in 2 weeks.
Just like sovereignty is important the same counts in cyberspace, where being data sovereignty is as much if not more important in the future.
