For us not a problem as we are registered on the Seychelles. But for any US Provider it can be a problem and privacy seeking customers will move to other providers

That's great but as we have seen, US tyranny does not end at its borders: like the recent extradition of the makers of Samourai wallet. If that kind of threat continues I guess cloud services and VPN providers can refuse business with IPs sourced in the US, where they seem to be gunning for a Great Firewall of China, er I mean USA

The proposal for the law counts for US IaaS providers and US companies. Normally it ends at this borders except you are a CEO of a company abroad and live in the US.

And till today Seychelles has no special MUTUAL LEGAL ASSISTANCE TREATIES (MLAT) with the US

👍 Good to know. Ultimately we need privacy technology that makes the need to rely on international law unnecessary though.

That's impossible because we need server, routers etc to keep the internet up & running.
