  1. This is the usual PR stuff. With the CLOUD Act the USA gives itself the permission to access data even if it's stored in the EU, when the data is stored by an US company. They don't care about GDPR. Yes, Google servers are located worldwide, but in many countries there are local companies with local datacenters. Once Microsoft had a cloud with servers located only in Germany. Yes, I feel better with hosting my stuff. It's not rocket science anymore. Most of the tasks can be autmated. I'm just a small target with a small value for hackers. But EN with all the data from thousends of users is a more valuable target. And I'm independent from ENs pricing surprise like in 2016.
  2. Sorry guys, I don't care anymore. I'm corrently running a Nextcloud instance on my Raspberry Pi 4 with a note app. And if it doesn't fit my requirements, I will try joplin. I'm done with EN.
  3. EN should offer a encryption like Apple on iPhones. Even Apple can't read their customers data.
  4. Ok, so what I understeand now is, if privacy is important to you, don't put important or business data in EN. Even if you pay.
  5. @gazumped: I don't see a security issue, when it's public in which country EN stores the data. Because now I already know the current country. And even Microsoft says, that they are building their cloud services also in Germany. I asked EN months ago about this, but their answer was like "accept it or leave". I accepted, because I was a basic user. But now I'm forced to upgrade. If I pay, I just want my data be save as possible. And the fact is, that my data isn't save in the USA. @DTLow: I can't speak for other non-US citicens, but I think, you're right. But this is not an argument and not a solution. How can I ecrypt notes in Evernote, if I only use Linux and Android? How can I encrypt the chat? How can I encrypt every note by default (I don't want to do it everytime manually). And not only the data itself is a privacy problem. The meta data can show many details about you and your life.
  6. No, this doesn't help. Why are these informations EN don't want to share publicly. I don't want the whole address, only the country. This would be transparent. No, I don't plan World Domination, therefore it's not necessary to observe me or my data. Not by the NSA, not by GCHQ, not by Santa Claus or whoever. Maybe I'm not important enough, but if I were a company which is using EN for business, I would have worries about economic espionage. It would not be the first time that intelligence agencys does that (just search for "NSA ESA Airbus"). Maybe Trump will be the next president of the USA. I wonder, what will happen with all the private data. Even now intelligence agencys can do whatever they want without any control. Maybe you don't see that critical, but there are several terrible examples what can happen, when a government knows everything about their citizens. So this i only digital self-defense.
  7. I want to make a proposal. I would appreciate, if EN would store the data of citizens of the EU in the EU. I know all the standard bla bla, how safe the data is. In fact it's not. Safe Harbor is over and we have now the Privacy Shield. But this is more or less the same, only with an other name. So as a non US citizen I don't have the control over my data. EN is holding the encryption keys and with the Patriot Act and FISA many people can have access to my data. And En can even be forced to keep the access secret. Some US companies even get money from the NSA for the access to the personal data of the customers. Legal backdoors. I don't know, if EN get also money for this, but after the last price "adjustment" I can imagine, that EN need badly money. Microsoft started to solve this problem by offering cloud services in the EU. This would be a feature that would be worth the price "adjustment".
