    analysts say its US ownership raises unresolved questions about legal authority

    Why do they say such BS? All these questions are well known and answered.

    American cloud companies are 100% unable to provide anything sovereign in Europe or elsewhere, (even when they give it that name now).

      I worked for one and I happen to know they violate European data laws by spying on employees (surprised?). An internal lawyer told us to keep quite about it and that they would find a legal pathway to punish those they wanted to punish.

      yes seriously, its all in the fecking CLOUD Act; why are CTOs so ignorant of it when they deal with the devil? My Company does everything on US Services and we deal with highly sensitive user and health data!
