Comment on Ask HN: Thoughts on using American-based cloud vendors in the Trump era?parent

Comments

Depends on who your adversaries are. I have no doubt that all top cloud providers (AWS, Azure, GCP and OCI) are doing a great job keeping my data secure. But they need to obey US authority, and considering what is happening right now is not very reassuring. At the bare minimum, if I need to pick a cloud region, I will pick one within the EU. But after the cloud act (see: https://www.justice.gov/criminal/cloud-act-resources) not even Europe is secure. So, no is not foolishness.
