To my knowledge, both eMule and DC++ are still active, but I think private trackers have become the more dominant technology for file sharing.

I don't know why the Brexiteers are pumping this narrative again.
No, I don't for one minute believe that Macron would jeopardize European security just for fishing rights. There is no way that Poland, Germany and the Netherlands would accept that.
I do believe that the politicians are working on a slightly grander deal that will restore trade between the UK and EU. Such a deal could be defended on both sides against critics as "a necessary compromise to secure Europe".
And Labour will benefit from the economic growth, which they hope will let them keep a majority next elections.
Of course, I think that's implied.
The US cut funding, so there will be no offices or personnel in the US to influence anything.
Liberal world, not progressive world.
And TBH, that's what they campaigned on.
Drain the swamp and all that.
It really is on their voters that can't distinguish fact from fiction.
Fair enough, maybe I was too harsh.
Thanks for doing the research.
Or he just doesn't really love her and maybe he already has his sights set on some new lady.
I wouldn't even rule out that he or a close family member might have been the one to call ICE.
"Unless their home countries sign defense pacts", which I kinda expect the UK and Turkey to sign.
Really nice, I'm loving it!
I can't wait until we can have a more independent EU IT landscape.
Browsing a bit, I see the Netherlands will also contribute in the future. And they also have Visio as an alternative to Zoom/Teams.
I read that Ubuntu is trying to solve this with the Snap Store.
But to be honest, I'm just not the target demographic for that.
I honestly think if the EU had continued with rolling out Mandrake and SuSe to public sector employees 20 years ago, Linux would be dominant today. Microsoft lobbied hard to stop it.
And I think the way forward will be to have a handful of big customers making the switch. Either China or the EU will probably drive this.
Maybe Huawei might sell MacBook alternatives based on Linux. Or the EU might revisit that old SuSe/Mandrake strategy.
I agree, except that I wouldn't classify Israel as a top intelligence power.
Their dependence on the USA is immense.
For European purposes, Egypt (Suez) and Turkey (both Bosporus and the land link to Asia) are the most important regional allies. Both or very populous and could become a new source of cheaper labour, now that Eastern EU countries are becoming more expensive.
Iran, Iraq and the Gulf countries are important as long as we can't have Russian and/or American fossil fuels. But even then, Turkey and Egypt are the broker between us and them.
What you say isn't false, but totally irrelevant to the point I am making. To the point that it is either naive or purposefully misleading.
Congratulations for understanding the basics of how mutual funds work.
But you are not in a position to discuss how the EU can get better in control of our own capital assets.
Thanks for posting.
That war cost a million Iraqi lives (calculated by excess deaths). And not to forget all the others killed by the sanctions in the 90s and the Iran-Iraq war in the 80s, where the USA actually allied with Saddam and egged him on to start it.
For Iraq, the USA truly was the evil empire.
