EU have access to Windows source code. Presumably if the shit really hit the fan we'd have a European build without all the spy/crapware added? Not much of a consolation given we'd have to be on the brink of WW3 for it to happen...

I think even Russia had it at some point. Microsoft is ready to allow it, if it is needed to convince state structures using Windows.
