Two reasons for non-Americans:
- the snooping is explicitly targeting foreigners. In USA I'm a foreigner, by hosting in my own country I have at least the protection of being a citizen.
- if I don't like the snooping my own government does, I can call my representatives, vote for "less snooping" political candidates, start lobbying etc. In a foreign country like USA I have no rights or leverage whatsoever.

We already moved our servers & data back to Germany right now evaluating few replacements for Google Apps.
