To be fair it's a post Snowden world and it's clear everyone is doing this. Amazon, Google, Microsoft, Apple, and everyone else who operates in the USA are giving the NSA everything.
If you care about your data you are basically only able to secure it if you host it yourself.
- sasas 10y agoor how about ... "if you care about your data, don't put it on the Internet. If you do, use E2E encryption." It's important that people also don't fall into the illusion that their Infosec skills can match that of google/apple engineers. These guys are some of the best there is.
- _audakel 10y agono matter how good you are, if someone (NSA) got their hands on your hardware at the source there is not much you can do.

- fooey 10y agoEven then, if you're a big enough target, how confident can you be that Dell or Cisco or Intel or AT&T or Seagate aren't giving them a backdoor into your operation anyways? It's pretty revolting, but my assumption is that if the US government _really_ wants your data, it's virtually impossible to block all the vectors they have to get at it.
