- celoyd 16y agoLike most hosting TOSes, theirs is written so they can boot you if they find you inconvenient, without a specific violation on your part. They say they can terminate service when (among other possibly applicable points): we determine, in our sole discretion, that our provision of any of the Services to you is prohibited by applicable law, or has become impractical or unfeasible for any legal or regulatory reason — http://aws.amazon.com/agreement/ http://aws.amazon.com/agreement/ 3.4.1 (viii) They would have a fair point that, even if it isn’t illegal, dealing with an investigation and bad publicity isn’t worth their time. For what it’s worth, I certainly wish they stood up at least until they were under specific legal threat. But they never advertised themselves as a data haven.
