Please, don't give ideas to whomever among their lawyers reads this later :-). We don't need another Schrems II..

I think lawyers probably miss a lot of these technicalities (which explains why they can require something as technically unreasonable as Schrems II), but I just wonder if someone more technical can actually push for something like that, to win themselves some questionable points, in the name of improving privacy.

What a bizarrely dismissive comment. You could just as easily say that some developers miss a lot of the legal technicalities, which explains why they believe Schrems II is an unreasonable ruling.

What's the unreasonable thing? Not having your data HQ in a place vulnerable to unrelated government overreach?
