Hm, do you have any link? Sounds like judge ruling out of his jurisdiction[1]. If the servers are in Germany, Switzerland or France good luck getting USA judge rulings implemented, especially if the other party (e.g. Germany/France) is not willing to cooperate. On the other hand, maybe there's some sort of agreement between the EU and the US we don't know about. Cloud services are becoming an increased pain, decentralized/encrypted data is the future apparently.
[1] Like when the US government wanted to indict Assange with charges of treason, regardless of the minor issue that he was not a 'USA' citizen, so... Treason according to whom?!
