Yes it’s possible. Note that I am not necessarily complaining about the products itself. It would be possible to live life almost completely US-product free. That will need a conscious effort though. My point was to show how American culture has penetrated in Europe (given: to a different extend in different countries).
A second point is that, apart from the icon set, you’re mostly talking about the underlying technology. It’s culture I’m talking about. For example, in our local cinema there are currently 14 movies, of which 12 from the US. As a child there were a lot of television series featuring schoolbusses, I knew what they looked like, even though there are no school busses in our country. I knew how the grade scale F-A worked somewhat, even though we had a 1-10 scale. I did only learn about the German grading scale somewhere in my twenties, even though Germany is our neighbor.
This is a thing that happens, there are several reasons for it, and I won’t be one to judge whether this is a good thing or not. However I do know it can be a relieve to have some things that are not associated with the US sometimes.
