But you'll never hear a peep from "no logs at all costs" VPN companies based in the EU.
- alephnerd 2mo agoE-Evidence sharing is just a subset of the broader UN Cybercrime treaty which has been signed.

- inigyou 2mo ago403 error. Now that's concerning. Europe doesn't want me to know what the law is in the place where I am.

- bawolff 2mo agoYeah, but normally when you sign something its because you intend to ratify it in short order.
- alephnerd 2mo agoNot true. Plenty of UN treaties have been signed but stalled on ratification.
- bawolff 2mo agoTrue, but there is still a general expectation that if you sign you intend to make a good faith effort to ratify. There being plenty of exceptions (a country not engaging with int law in good faith! How shocking) doesnt change that i think most of the time signers do try to ratify.
