Prove it

Also, what happens if you find a leak? Or that it has been moved somewhere else?

They say "We are sorry", give you some free credit, and that's it ?

No, that won't happen.

"Sorry not sorry" and no credit.

How do you prove that a german company does not have secret data sharing agreements? Think cryptoAG.

I think its much more likely that an American company with a former NSA head as a board member is much more likely to have an agreement like that, personally.

The arrangements brought to light through amongst others the Snowdon files did involve extremely few people at huge companies. We are talking a literal hand full, not '25.000'. Are you really suggesting there are no three letter acronym operators embedded into the large US tech companies? Modern US systemic tech industrial espionage was brought to light as far back as Echelon. so deriding people who are cautious about it as 'flat earthers' seems disingenuous.

> You think that 25,000+ employees that work at AWS have somehow been silenced into some grand conspiracy?

You seem to suggest that every single employee that works at AWS is aware of everything that goes on with the company.

Isn't just possible that despite of what we know about the architecture, this might not be the whole truth and concerns about involuntary inter region transfers might just be warranted?

Your innocence is quite charming, specially in a post-snowden world
