Schengen Cloud
Schengen Cloud is the concept and proposal of a Europe-only integrated electronic communication/system network which emerged after the whistleblowing and reporting on the mass surveillance activities of British and American security and intelligence agencies.[1][2] Germany and France want to control their own networks without the United States being a middleman.[1][3][4][5]
In 2014, the US trade representatives voiced their opposition to Schengen Cloud.[1][6]
The proposal was first announced in 2011,[6] but its status is unknown as of 2021.
