    Any legal hoster will have to give up the data to local LEA, eventually. I would rather go for a hoster that has proven to use encryption and is legally fighting any order they receive.

      Makes me curious, I assume within the EU with GDPR it would be roughly equivalent.

      What’s the difference between EU countries then and why?

        Well, not all EU countries share laws. There’s the EU laws, and then there’s the countries own laws. We (here in Denmark) is often a bit more secure, than most other countries - and because my provider is in the country I live in, if there are any disputes, they can be settled here, without spending a million on lawyer fees… :-)

            Well, you should read up on the “Databeskyttelsesloven” for one… Or “data protection law”…

              Thanks, skimmed through https://www.recordinglaw.com/world-laws/world-data-privacy-laws/denmark-data-privacy-laws/ but it’s quite difficult to do a “diff” between one and the other. From reading it I didn’t notice significantly better for my normal usage but I’m not a lawyer. It also makes me wonder, if you have done it, how do you know it’s not better than say another random EU country also national specific modifications, e.g. Slovenia? Is there any “benchmark” somewhere that identifies which national changes are better?

                Are you here to troll, or why do you expect me to teach you on this subject? Seriously, if you need to compare all the laws, be my guest, but don’t be daft about it in here.

                  How is asking to justify a position trolling? You are the one who claimed that Danish law is better than GDPR. I didn’t claim you lie or that law elsewhere was better, I solely asked for the proof. It’s not because I mistrust you, I just want to learn and you saying it is so without an actual comparison is not enough. If you don’t want to help that’s perfectly OK you can just say so. It’s fine to say you prefer Danish product because they are better and refuse to give proof that it’s the case. It won’t help me nor others though.

                  It’s the Privacy community on Lemmy, I bet others would love to learn too.
