Naar aanleiding van de uitspraak van de voorzieningenrechter in Rotterdam inzake de #DigiD dienstverlener Solvinity, schreef ik deze nieuwsbrief voor de mensen die @thefirewall@mastodon.social volgen en zich daarop hebben geabonneerd. Veel van de aandacht in de pers ging naar juridische details en de prikkelende uitspraken die de advocaten van de eisende partij deden over staatssecretaris Willemijn Aerdts. De eisende partij gold vooral als ‘Solvinity ’. Ik deed daar zelf ook aan mee, maar denk daar toch iets anders over. https://www.thefirewall.eu/artikelen/londense-hebzucht-in-een-rotterdamse-rechtszaal

Londense hebzucht in een Rotterdamse rechtszaal

Eerder dan verwacht lag er een uitspraak in de zaak van Solvinity tegen de Nederlandse staat. De rechter volgt de lijn van de staatssecretaris en stichting Firewall c.s. Dat is goed nieuws, maar de zitting kende wel een boeiend verloop waar we graag bij stilstaan.

If the ownership of #DigID (the Dutch digital ID platform) is something that should be subject to the laws of a free market, then why is the US ambassador in the Netherlands stepping in?

The American digital colonialism over Europe is becoming more aggressive as Europe starts to gain its own independence. And they didn’t think that we were that serious with our talks about digital sovereignty. https://www.dutchnews.nl/2026/05/us-ambassador-criticises-dutch-block-on-digid-owner-sale/

US ambassador criticises Dutch block on DigiD owner sale - DutchNews.nl

The US ambassador to the Netherlands has spoken out against the Dutch government’s decision to veto the sale of DigiD operator Solvinity to American IT firm Kyndryl, saying he is in urgent talks with the State Department and wants a meeting with prime minister Rob Jetten. Joseph Popolo, speaking at a panel at the inaugural Next Gen Security Conference in The Hague on Wednesday, said the cabinet had acted under “time pressure” and “without time for a full evaluation”.

The dutchies have a centralized identity that you are using to basically interact with everything government. That contains pensions and health related issues. This is called DigID. It is run by a company called Solvinity an was was supposed to be taken over by a U.S. company called Kyndryl. The dutch cabinet (= government) has now blocked this takeover. I think the topic of souvernty is slowly landing in the right heads. I guess also ... thank you @bert_hubert@eupolicy.social and everyone else making noise there🙂 https://nltimes.nl/2026/05/26/netherlands-blocks-us-takeover-digid-operator-solvinity-security-concerns #infosec #cybersecurity #souveraeneInfrastruktur #sovereignty #digid

I'm honestly angry with the dutch government over letting the critical DigID infrastructure get purchased by american investors. it feels deliberately evil at this point. there's no way you can miss the insanity that is USA politics or big tech right now, there has to be corruption involved. #DigID

Dutch civil servant fired because he spoke up against the takeover of #Solvinity that provides the #DigiD service. DigiD is the central system that is used in the #Netherlands to log in into official government and related services. Solvinity, the company hosting DigiD will probably be taken over by Kyndryl, a US company. Putting the login functionality of the Dutch official digital services under US #jurisdiction. #DigitalSovereignty #DigitalAutonomy In Dutch: https://www.techzine.nl/nieuws/privacy-compliance/577495/cpo-logius-ontslagen-via-trouw-na-rel-rond-digid-beheerder-solvinity/
