Re: Seems like the least reason to dump them
Govt. so called commercial arms usually end up being a disaster. Local council ones are even worse with electricity providers and massive real estate portfolios that always lose money. Usually a disaster story every month in Private Eye.
Would be interesting if Scotland did become independent about what would happen to data sovereignty. Couldn’t stay in AWS or Azure UK regions, couldn’t use European ones, couldn’t use UK Crown Hosting datacentres.
Considering that SNP last time around put the total transition costs of independence at £50 million you’d be lucky to get a decent car park for a Tier 4 data centre for that.
