Sadly can't see Finland, but would expect it to be fiery bright red as we are soon hosting everything on Amazon servers.. From healthcare to elections.

Election data is going to stay domestic, switch to AWS was called back. But that's a very thin silver lining as nearly everything else is either on Microsoft or on AWS.

I'd bet my money on that they just delayed it and will try again later when we're too busy panicking over some "hybrid operation", again.

Follow the link in the Mastodon post: https://belibre.be/mxmap and pick Finland. 308 items, almost completely red.
