This is hilarious

Since it is a US company, it is still subject to cloud act, US intelligence full access, and Trumps ability to ignore any and all laws and contracts. Microsoft execs, who have similar offerings, have confirmed this under oath.

So either this is a valiant attempt by AWS that is ultimately misguided, or it is an attempt to capture customers without even a hint of legal expertise.

AWS, Azure and GC stand to lose all EU customers in the next years. They simply must, given that no data with them is secure from Trump’s admin or industrial espionage. This does not help that





Even though it’s marketing, i think they should not be allowed to call it sovereign.

Perhaps one could sue them for that.


It's marketing. Less informed CIOs or orgs with nasty migrations off of AWS will use it

> is an attempt to capture customers without even a hint of legal expertise

That's been the (very successful) business model of all those GDPR "consent management" providers.
