- This year marks the 50th anniversary of Microsoft, which has established itself as a leader in office software and cloud services, raising concerns about digital dependency.
- In Bedburg, Microsoft is planning to build data centers, offering the mayor hope for new jobs but increasing reliance on a single corporation.

- Experts advocate for the promotion of European alternatives and increased competition to mitigate reliance on Microsoft.
