I-European Union ibonakaliswe kwiminyaka yamuva nje qalisa iimfazwe zomnqamlezo ezahlukeneyo ngokuchasene nabaphuhlisi besoftware abakhulu, abavelisi bezixhobo zombane, iinkonzo zewebhu... ezisekelwe eUnited States. Esi ayisosihlandlo sokuqala ukuba inkampani enkulu yaseMelika igwetywe ukuba ihlawule isohlwayo esikhulu semali ngenxa yokwaphulwa kwamalungelo athile eYurophu esiwathatha nzulu, kodwa oko eUnited States kubonakala kungahoywa.
Kodwa ayisiyiyo iManyano yaseYurophu kuphela ehlala isazi ngokusebenza kolu hlobo lwenkampani, kuba amanye amazwe ayazikhathaza ngokwawo kwaye aqalise izenzo ngokwawo, njengoko kunjalo ngeFransi. Umphathiswa wezemali waseFransi, uBruno Le Maire, ubhengeze ukuba ilizwe lakhe iza kuthatha amanyathelo asemthethweni ngokuchasene ne-Apple kunye neGoogle ngezenzo zabo zoshishino ezixhaphazayo. Iza kuthatha amanyathelo kuphela kwezi nkampani kuba zizo kuphela ii-ecosystems ezihambayo ezikhoyo ngoku kwimarike.
NgokukaLe Maire, iinkampani zetekhnoloji zithatha ithuba labaphuhlisi baseFransi ngezi zenzo, zichaza ukuba izohlwayo zinokufikelela kwiibhiliyoni ezininzi zee-euro. Kudliwanondlebe olunikwe ngumphathiswa wezemali waseFransi kwisikhululo sikanomathotholo se-RTL, uLe Maire uthe kutshanje uye wafunda ngezinto ezenziwa nguApple noGoogle, apho. Iinkampani zenza amaxabiso azo kwaye zilungise eminye imiqathango yesivumelwano kunye nabaphuhlisi bezicelo.
Le ngxaki ibuyela umva kude, ekubeni emva kokufunda ngalo mkhuba, ngo-2015, iofisi yobuqhetseba yenkonzo yakhe. yaqala uphando apho yafumanisa "ukungalingani okubalulekileyo" kubudlelwane babaphuhlisi abathengise izicelo zabo kwiivenkile ze-Apple kunye neGoogle.
ULe Maire uthi, ngaphandle kwesikhundla sabo esiphambili kwimarike, zombini iApple kunye neGoogle, Akufuneki babe nako ukunyanga abaphuhlisi baseFransi kunye nabaqalayo njengoko besenza namhlanje. Ngokutsho kukaLe Maire, uya kulinda ukuveza ityala lakhe phambi kwenkundla yezorhwebo yaseParis, emva kokuba irhafu yerhafu inani elikhulu leenkampani zaseMelika lithatha ithuba lokuhlawula ngokukhawuleza kangangoko kunokwenzeka eYurophu.
