that's a point that many (too many) people misses right now. it will cause a lot of problem. If someone is able to reproduce (somehow) what AWS / Google does fro cloud, but with an EU company, they will have a lot of new customers very soon.
- rvnx 4y agoIt's a common confusion, but when you contract with Google Cloud, the service is provided by "Google Cloud EMEA Limited, Ireland", which is an European company, and when they provide you with a datacenter in Europe they are totally an European company operating in Europe. This is different for example to DigitalOcean LLC, that is a US-entity providing service to European customers (this example has to be verified, but that's what I remember).
- baobob 4y agoThis is a distinction that will be increasingly lost on EU regulators, more so than it already is today.
- waffleiron 4y agoIt is lost on regulators due to CLOUD act. The parent company still can access the personal data stored by subsidiaries.
