Nobody's mentioning the article says "the United States imposed sanctions on the International Criminal Court (ICC) in The Hague."

Which means that US companies may not provide services or products to the ICC. Sure it sucks that Microsoft complied but the federal government is to blame.

"Under President Trump, the US has taken a decidedly less friendly stance toward the European Union and its member states. These geopolitical tensions mean that it is up to the business community to smooth things over. Microsoft, for example, is adamant that it will defend itself in court if Washington demands access to European citizens’ data. In fact, the encryption and access management of sovereign cloud services should make access from outside the continent technically impossible"

There's a theory called the "Monopoly on violence" which says that people will allow the government to commit violent acts against them as long as they believe that the government is legitimate and that there is no other group that can do this.

Two people dead

"City officials said the ship, the Cuauhtemoc, struck the bridge shortly before 8:30 p.m. after losing power. Its two tall masts were knocked off when it made impact with the 140-year old suspension bridge as drivers sped by in either direction, according to multiple videos of the incident."
