Die Abhängigkeit von Microsoft hat einen Preis – und der steigt rasant.
Christoph Schmees zeigt: Bundesbehörden zahlten 2023 noch 274 Mio. €, 2025 schon 481 Mio. €. Mit angeschlossenen Stellen fast eine Milliarde jährlich. Transparenz? Fehlanzeige. Digitale Souveränität wäre offensichtlich günstiger.
