Telekom and Microsoft partnered together a long time ago to fix this problem but it turns out in european public comunal and state procurement projects that cloud offerings play a very insignificant role since its largely all on-prem IT projects and so that partnership was closed.

I'm just writing this because a lot of comments are getting the wrong idea from this and causing some weird mix of hysteria and europhoby. In the grand scheme of things, there is no money lost for Azure and AWS, the potential of the once in a full moon cloud projects from public european institutions wouldn't even amount to something that would be described as pocket chance.

There is no tit for tat, we european citizens don't want our personal data to be accessible to the US government and their respective secret agencies.

The US government will not back up from their policy and so we do neither but since we otherwise enjoy a great partnership and alliance, we take this issue pretty "dry and emotionless", trust me, there are no hard feelings or ill intentions.

It’s not essential but this is one of Unity’s revenue sources, so they will advertise it . In fact, one key aspect to finding success (disclosure: I am an ex Unity AssetStore publisher) in the AssetStore is to persuade buyers in thinking your asset is essential for making their project come true. It’s all about selling shovels and dreams.
