In the UK, by law, mapping data access is controlled by the government.
Germany could declare, by law, that 1) AI training datasets and resulting networks are controlled by the government, which grants automatic permission to develop and use to all entities; 2) requires timely and no-appeal compliance with training data and network requests; 3) delaying publication of both for one year to keep the wolves at bay for startups.
They are unlikely to pass a law, and enforcement could never be truly certain or successful, but it would apply to Google if they transit German fiber. Germany could demand sanctions against the United States for refusal to adhere to their laws. It would be awesome.
Maybe someday.
EDIT: Another example, Tesla would be required to divulge to Germany both their training data (all driving data ever collected from a Tesla) and their AI networks (all versions) in order to continue transmitting data to German networks (or else a government with trade agreements, police, lawmakers, and a military is angry at them) with the understanding that it would be made public in one year (stagnate at your peril).
