American here, I don’t trust US firms with data
I trust they are selling my data to make money, even when I ask them not to.
I trust that they’ll be complete push-overs when it comes to law enforcement and agency data requests without a warrant.
Outside of moving data overseas, away from 5/9-eyes, I’m having a bad time figuring out how to obtain cryptographic control over my data within existing services. This leaves me to just upload crypto blobs everywhere with no real services to support it, or buying my own hardware and co-locating it myself.
Even more they don’t trust china…
Yeah I wouldn’t lol
How about, if your data can be compromised, it’s not safe anywhere?
Why on earth would we!? China especially don’t have the best track record, and the US is the laughing stock of the world at this point, not to trusted with anything.
Definitely, and “data” is just a single bullet point on the list lol
It’d be like going to a quack doctor and saying “No way am I letting you operate on my brain! …open heart surgery? Yeah, that’s fine” lol
But > 9/10 Europeans use whastapp / messenger for daily basis.
9/10 european companies decide to use Aws, azure or gcp, instructions of Scaleway or ovh.
9/10 europeans use Chatgpt or Claude instead of mistral or Lumo
Lumo shoutout!
I’d say that are a looooot more 😒
Yup, probably like >99%
Probably more in the realm of 99.999%. Without exaggeration. Some countries even use WhatsApp for government shit.
So sad, why would anyone freely use WA at all. People use tech without the slightest critique. Pure consumers…
I despise the US from the bottom of my heart, and I am a big China fan, and yet at the same time I don’t want anyone to handle our data. We need data sovereignty. Our data stays here and that’s it. Not in the US. Not in China. Not anywhere else.
How many of those 8 are doing anything, ANYTHING, about it though?
I also don’t trust us with our data.
I’m American and don’t trust U.S. firms with data.
To be clear, I also don’t trust Chinese firms.
I don’t trust my own government, and have no reason to trust anyone else at this point, let alone for profit companies. It’s bleak.
I use DeepSeek, because I feel it is less nefarious.
Good, also don’t trust european firms either, don’t trust any corporations with your data.
It’s amazing how many people cheer for corporations. There’s few consistents in the world but a big one is corporations are not your friend.
Lol who trusts any firm with their data?
20% of Europeans
Watching all the new laws spew out in Europe I don’t trust them, either.
I’m down to Romania and Iceland, now.
Been dumping German stuff like a plague lately, and already pulled all data out of Canada.
I have one thing in Amsterdam, but their laws have been getting worse and worse, and they’re… Nine, I think it is, eyes which is bad for trusting them with your data. Even Switzerland is getting sus af.
I do trust Chinese a lot more than muricans. And don’t use any american product (to my current knowledge).
As an American, I also don’t trust the US firms with my data.
I don’t trust anyone with my data. Regardless of their nationality.
Me either, but I also have zero faith in Europe to guard human rights. There are no good guys here.
