Well this isn’t good. 
Dismantling the federal government turns out to have some negative effects. Who could have imagined?
It’s ridiculous how much soft power the US has given up for what amounts to a couple of pennies of the average person’s tax bill (I don’t mean this one thing is pennies, it doesn’t even show up on a regular person’s taxes, I mean the entirety of the cuts from “DOGE” and this administration).
This isn’t the only thing that’s impacting tech. The immigration stuff is going to kneecap our tech industry. The US is unlikely to recover once we lose our lead in tech.
I don’t like to get political here, but this stuff is so mindlessly harmful, I don’t know how we can talk honestly about our industry without acknowledging how much damage is being done.

but it shows - it is often easy to forget the word is much bigger than the US and couldn’t care less about what is political there

The globalization genie is out of the bottle and will never go back in, nor should it. The higher we build walls to make ourselves believe that ‘that stuff over there doesn’t affect me’ only makes it harder when those walls come tumbling/crashing down.
Europe has your back:

I don’t want to become political, but this makes one wonder if curtain parties tasked with reducing government spending would benefit from vulnerabilities staying hidden, or at least have customers confused about them by forcing the world to use other, maybe more scattered sources of publishing them?

Not when you’re in a location where these walls (that the US builds) are intentionally keeping you a slave to their superiority. I think this applies to most of the world.
