[German] Wero uses Amazon's AWS (netzpolitik.org)

AWS denies ever having disclosed customer content stored outside the U.S. to the U.S. government in response to requests related to the CLOUD Act—at least for the past six years, “since we began tracking this data in 2020.”

That is no guarantee that it won’t happen eventually. Especially since Jeff Bezos, founder of Amazon and now executive chairman of the board, is now considered a “fanboy” of President Donald Trump.

Translated with DeepL.com (free version)

Original German quote:

AWS bestreitet, jemals außerhalb der USA gespeicherten Kundeninhalte gegenüber der US-Regierung offengelegt zu haben, wenn es Anfragen erhalten hat, die sich auf den CLOUD Act bezogen – zumindest für die vergangenen sechs Jahre, „seit wir 2020 mit der statistischen Erfassung begonnen haben“.

Das ist keine Gewähr dafür, dass es nicht doch noch dazu kommt. Zumal Jeff Bezos, Gründer von Amazon und heute geschäftsführender Vorsitzender des Verwaltungsrats, inzwischen als „Fanboy“ von Präsident Donald Trump gilt.
