Hosting LLMs at scale without Azure/Bedrock is still a massive pain, and they offer EU based data sovereignty, so not clear what the problem is there (or are we now saying no doing business with US companies at all?)
- hedora 2y agoIf Microsoft is providing EU data sovereignty, then they’re either in violation of US law (the US CLOUD Act, specifically) or do not have the technical capability to access data on those servers. (So, for instance, the machines could be air gapped, or they could be configured to never honor MS credentials, including on the software update path). In practice, this means no US cloud providers provide foreign data sovereignty (though many claim to).
- cess11 2y agoThe CLOUD Act is incompatible with basic data protection rights. As long as whatever sham of a data protection agency was nominally functional in the US european elites could convince themselves that it was legal to transfer personal data to some US corporations, but now that agency is defunct. But yeah, it's a bad idea to do business with empires. Sooner or later they turn to bullying and extortion.
