Germany's domestic intelligence agency has selected a French data analysis system instead of US-based Palantir Technologies, reportedly marking a strategic shift in Berlin's technology procurement.
The decision reflects growing European concerns over reliance on American tech platforms for sensitive government operations. Civil society groups welcomed the move but said more action is needed to reduce dependence on non-EU technologies.
The choice signals Germany's effort to strengthen digital sovereignty within Europe, particularly for intelligence and security operations. France's software alternative positions the EU to develop homegrown solutions for classified government work.
