I mean in theory this is absolutely correct and everyone everywhere will follow due process and the data will only become available at the individual level when a court affirms it is appropriate.
As long as due process and checks and balances are respected, there's absolutely nothing to worry about lmfao.

I think you missed my point. Your ISP already has your traffic, and is just as easy to compel as NextDNS. No one is going to NextDNS for your traffic, and even if they do, NextDNS doesn't have any information your ISP doesn't already have.

This thread is specially about the USA so I didn’t feel the need to clarify that I’m obviously only talking about the USA.

The article isn’t specifically about the USA (the word “American” appeared once in “American English” when explaining the name Pi-hole). The CharlesW comment doesn’t mention the USA. The nik282000 comment says NextDNS is a U.S. company so U.S. government will have access to the data, it never said it’s only a concern for American users. I don’t know where you got the idea that this thread is specially about the USA. In fact, I assume the nik282000 comment is mostly for non-American users.

This thread is about the dangers of using a US-based service provider. People outside the US can use it.

The good ol' media talks about it happening in America so it must only happen in America fallacy. ISPs can be compelled to divulge data in most places around the world.
If someone wanted your internet traffic, they wouldn't bother with NextDNS. They would just compel your internet provider to give it to them.
This is not a real risk to using NextDNS.
