yeah, there's lots of countries with regulations that certain data can't leave the geographical boundary of the country. Often, it is the most sensitive data.

- mike_d 6y agoThese laws generally don't work how people think they do. For example, the Russian data residency law states that a copy of the data must be stored domestically, not that it can't be replicated outside the country. The UAE has poorly written laws that have different regulations for different types of data - including fun stuff like only being subject to specific requirements if the data enters a 270 acre business park in Dubai. Don't even get me started on storing encrypted data in one country and the keys in another...
