I can’t find the specific exception anymore, and Google is only delivering articles about today, so I’m sorry (and at any Googlers reading this: Fix your damn algorithms, or at least give us the ability to search the same way as in early 2013! I’m less bothered by spam domains than by getting only buzzfeed etc instead of actual documentation)

Back to topic: Database replication is forbidden, yes. So, well, host your data in the EU for now, and hope that the US finally comes to senses regarding spying. Same applies to GCHQ and BND

> Google is only delivering articles about today, so I’m sorry

only three of my top links are from today if I search something like "EU safe harbor caching" and even fewer for searches that omit "safe harbor" and search for data protection (which gets you the actual directives as the first hit).

Regardless, your problem is solved easily with Search Tools -> Any Time -> Custom range...

Well, that search tool stuff still doesn’t give me any proper links, and with the way Google results are customized nowadays, it’s not really comparable anymore anyway.

Anyway, database replication is nothing that is supposed to be exempt from data privacy laws anyway. You’ll have to deal with it somehow without giving my data into the hands of a US entity.
