As someone in the US who has been in audits where we had to attest to where our data was stored, also wtf.
Oh reading the article it means non-US sovereignty. Pretty sure anybody in IT at this point should know the US privacy laws are non-existent and US companies are in this position and have been for decades.
The article makes it pretty clear that this is due to a 2018 law called The Cloud Act. I’m sure the US could have tightened the thumbscrews and gotten the information illegally before then, but that’s going to be true of every country. No reason to think you can trust any government.
