- mschuster91 3y agoHow is this actually supposed to work in practice, other than sharding EU and non-EU customers and having them unable to communicate across the shards?
- sebgaj 3y agoConfidential Cloud computing is the answer and hyperscalers work on that. You literally put your data in a black box.
- brtkdotse 3y agoMeta’s chock full of very smart, highly paid people. I’m sure they’ll figure something out.
- tremon 3y agoWhy unable to communicate? Is there any reason why the relevant non-EU customer data cannot be stored within the EU as well?
- daveoc64 3y agoIf someone in the US visits a profile page of someone in the EU, that necessitates a transfer of data outside of the EU. Perhaps that's an extreme and pedantic example though.
