Wire Uncut is a bi-weekly video series by Wire spotlighting bold, secure, European-built alternatives to Big Tech. In each 10–15 minute episode, we sit down with founders, product leaders, and technologists from across Europe to talk candidly about digital sovereignty, trust, security, and innovation in enterprise tech.

Why Crisis Communication Needs End-to-End Encryption
Last year, the world experienced 3205 cyberattacks and data breaches, and the biggest attack exposed more than 3 billion user accounts. As organizations step up their cybersecurity efforts, they must also ensure compliance with emerging regulations. Newly implemented laws like the NIS2 (Network and Information Systems Directive) are now focusing not just on external or customer facing protocols and incident management, but also secure internal communication processes and records.
Secure communications deserve clarity, not confusion
The rise of secure communications is a crucial aspect of adapting to a threat-filled digital landscape, enabling individuals and organizations to communicate safely, privately, and with sovereignty. It is in this spirit that Wire has raised concerns about what we consider to be risky, insecure, outdated, or non-credible approaches. Recently, we raised such concerns about Matrix, which seem to have struck a nerve and led to a lengthy and heated response.

Big Tech is Making Data Sovereignty Promises it Can't Keep
Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella is putting the best foot forward possible in an impossible situation. Microsoft is investing significant effort and resources into “private” and “sovereign” service offerings and curation to reassure EU customers that their data will be secure. In a recent LinkedIn post, Satya announced new sovereign offerings that he says reflect Microsoft’s commitment to giving customers choice, control, and security.

Meta's stealth tracking: another EU wakeup call
Every time a user visited a website with a Meta Pixel, the app silently collected browsing metadata, cookies, search activity, products viewed or purchased, and tied it to the user’s identity via app login IDs or Android Advertising IDs. This invasive behavior bypassed browser privacy settings, undermining user consent.
