If the ICC gets sanctioned there will probably be a big boost in EU companies leaving USA services for good. Many are already very seriously talking about it, but need to be 'pushed' a bit more.

The previous ICC sanctions started a lot of discussion in the EU. For example, people loose not only access to Microsoft services but also bank/credit card (Visa is USA). https://www.theguardian.com/law/2026/feb/18/international-cr...

EU is slow, but poke it enough and it will leave USA services (and then never come back). For example, Nextcloud can substitute MS365, ICC itself did so after the previous sanctions: https://delta.tudelft.nl/en/article/international-criminal-c...

I am not a "no-moatist" per se but one can argue their might be a plateau to how good a inference llm can become. If this is the case the playing field shifts to context, tools and harness, which are much cheaper to build an compete on.
