Huawei Frightens Europe's Data Protectors. America Does, Too

This absolutely is a problem.

US domination of the 'cloud' space is close to total, I've been thinking about building something that involves medical data for a while but I've not pulled the trigger on it yet because amongst many concerns it's hard to host anything in the cloud that in some way doesn't trace back to a US company.

I've actually started compiling a list of companies that provide hosting that aren't US based or US subsidaries in some way.

Of course even if you manage that they are still using US processors and US technology.

Once you start getting a bit paranoid it is quite hard not to get alot paranoid.

Especially when you live in a 5-eyes country.
