Law‑driven tech decoupling

Governments will increasingly try to force practical 'decoupling' from dominant foreign cloud and platform providers by embedding procurement, localization, and resilience requirements into cybersecurity and resilience statutes. Rather than outright bans, these laws condition public‑sector contracting, interoperability, and incident‑response rules to push workloads toward vetted domestic or allied providers. — If governments use resilience legislation to engineer supply‑chain shifts, it will alter where critical data and services live, reshape multinational vendor strategy, and create new geopolitical leverage points over digital infrastructure.
