> Proton’s launch blog post for their new video conferencing product contains this paragraph: “laws like the US CLOUD Act can compel US-owned video conferencing platforms to hand over any data they store, even if the servers reside outside of the United States. This creates serious compliance challenges for organizations bound by GDPR, CCPA, or similar data protection laws. That’s why we’ve created Proton Meet.” Actually, it creates an incompatibility, period. How much I dislike all this weasling around, trying to find a gap, where none exists, hoping, that the law won't be followed to the letter, lack of interest in following the law to its logical conclusion, all in the name of wanting to conduct business in an easier way, even if not adhering to the law. I wish all those companies trying that would be gone. Let us have solutions that are inside the EU, many of us don't want the US big tech crap any longer. I wish that governments and people in charge of public institutions and their tech decisions realized this. Instead they weasle around and try the "But we are using Microsoft in the EU!" as if that is worth a dime. Try convincing me, that a company like MS in EU won't oblige, when the command from MS in the US comes to send over some data. Good luck!
