I just hope it's European.
why? what does country of origin have to do with it in general?
Because we (the EU citizens) need some internet and software sovereignty. It's a valid desire. Most of the governments run on software owned by companies that can be under control of foreign nations.
A certain level of independence is good for any nation, group, society.
Besides from that EU law provides us with some guarantees regarding privacy. If a company doesn't respect our privacy, we have the means to defend ourselves.
