Least concerned with? Have you already forgotten about Snowden? Do you know about Five Eyes (or even Fourteen Eyes)? In Canada they outsource surveillance of Canadians to overseas Five Eyes partner agencies so they evade their own privacy laws. It's reasonable to assume that other Five Eyes countries do the same.
- throw0101a 7y agoI'm with an ISP that has a direct link to TorIX, which has a who's who of the major Internet properties and CDNs: * https://www.torix.ca/peers/ https://www.torix.ca/peers/ My e-mail is hosted on Canadian soil with a direct-connect to TorIX (and I personally know the people who run the servers). I know when I hit a foreign corporation (AMZN, GOOG, etc.) that my data is probably up for grabs, but I also know when when my traffic is not leaving Canadian (digital) soil. So yes, I know all about ECHELON et al, but I know how the packets I send out are generally routed as well.
