We used to call this "NSL-proof". If your provider is architected to be NSL-proof, then the warrant has to get served to you.

This is now possible to achieve in AWS, for example.

I think the right way to advocate for this really is to focus on the warrant aspect. It’s not about preventing law enforcement but keeping it above board where there’s at least the possibility of oversight and targets can exercise their rights to things like legal representation.

Can you please elaborate? I haven't seen any info from AWS to that end, and with KMS they control the keys.

I’m assuming they’re referring to this new feature:
