Its the worlds weakness. Time to break the chain of U.S. tech dependence, but it'll be a slow process.

Not only tech, but the mindset aswell. US is still often seen as the "safe" tech provider contrary to evidence (e.g. snowden's whistleblow) and it would be healthy for the masses to be more sceptical.
