The French have been avoiding dependence on Americans since de Gualle. The only reason the entire country hasn't died of schadenfreude poisoning is because "schadenfreude" is a German word.

For anyone like me:
schadenfreude /shäd′n-froi″də/
nounPleasure derived from the misfortunes of others. Malicious enjoyment derived from observing someone else's misfortune. Delight in another person's misfortune. -

As an American, who the fuck even has to be told that, by now? If you know what’s going on, you have an obligation to make American corporations shriek their fucking heads off as they hemorrhage profits.
As an American:
FFS STOP BUYING AMERICAN!

I think it's a bit hard for most people when there's such an abundance of goods and services and nobody really knows where everything comes from.

You don’t have to be perfect, just try your best to avoid anything made in the US. If it’s unavoidable, don’t stress it, just buy the absolute least you can get away with, while looking for EU alternatives.

::: spoiler Google translation of a few paragraphs
You have a one in seven chance of seeing your health data migrate to the Microsoft cloud and fall under American law, and therefore under the good will of its president, Donald Trump, and the Doge's boss, Elon Musk. So, happy? Yes, you may be among the 10 million French people randomly selected as part of the Darwin EU project, coordinated by the European Medicines Agency and led, in France, by the public interest group "Plateforme des données de santé," better known as the Health Data Hub (HDH).In a decision published on March 11, the French National Commission for Information Technology and Civil Liberties (CNIL) gave the HDH the green light to select a random sample of 10 million people representative in terms of age, sex, and department of residence from the main database of the National Health Data System, the vast majority of which is issued by the National Health Insurance Fund. The objectives are certainly laudable: to determine the prevalence and incidence of drug and vaccine use in France using a standardized methodology.
Less laudable, the host chosen to store this data is Microsoft. In 2020, as part of a summary procedure, we already warned that sensitive health data of the French population hosted by Microsoft fell under American law due to the company's domicile in the United States. In October 2020, the Council of State recognized this risk of extraterritoriality of American law. A month later, in a letter dated November 19, 2020, the Minister of Health, Olivier Véran, urged the government to completely eliminate, within two years, the risks posed by the hosting of health data by an American operator.

France has a sneaker brand called Le Coq. Why would anyone buy Nike when they can show off their Le Coq is beyond me.
