Yeah this isn't good at all especially when they market themselves as secure but just have full access to all the data.

There's gotta be something out there better than these crappy systems ready to throw you under a bus under barely any pressure.

I've been pretty happy self-hosting Peergos for cloud storage

Then you go to jail. If you refuse to give out the password. Law changed..

Oh, interesting. Where can I read more about this?

Why should I even respond when everything gets downvoted anyway...
§ 70 Absatz 2 StPO
Herausgabepflicht nach § 95 StPO
§ 184b StGB, § 184c StGB
And more...
Look for the sources yourself... I'm sick of this thread.

Are those just Swiss laws? I don't run my Peergos instance there, so maybe I'm safe.

🤔 I guess I should still do some research though, to familiarize myself with the legal landscape of the region in which I run my insurance.

Also, I wouldn't worry too much about downvotes. I get them fairly regularly, and almost never understand why, lol. AFAICT, they don't really seem to matter much on Lemmy (though maybe someone can correct me if I'm wrong about that).

Uhh, I didn't know that Switzerland alone was without Europe, etc... Oh, change doesn't come from just one thing... Push everything far away, yes, ignore everything, yes. But as I said, I'm not going to bother anymore with you hypocrites who ridicule the whole community, yes, with blind trust, etc. Of course, there is nothing about Switzerland and coercive detention... Oh, wait, there is.

My server is not in Europe. Also, I have not ridiculed any community. I really don't know what has prompted this tone. Regardless, thanks for the info.

I'm sorry, and don't take it personally, I'm just fed up with this whole thread and reacted irritably. People can send me a PM, but I won't be writing anything more about it here in the thread itself. I'd rather enjoy my time with 3D modeling and my family.
