We need to adopt alternatives to US cloud services, fast. Governments still aren’t realizing how fast and relatively friction free the US is sliding towards fascism.
I think until Microsoft ensures Canadian data sovereignty takes precedence over US law, they must be prevented from operating in the Canadian marketplace.
Get out of US cloud infra as fast as you can.
I am sadly in the walled garden of apple for all of my life. I was swimming in the cesspool of Google for a long time as well; all but 2 of my Google accounts have been closed, my personal one that all I use it for is signing into Unwatched for youtube and my Eric Smit account that I used to say that I was dead to stop getting some junk mail. I am slowly moving everything out of iCloud and onto a Canadian hosted Nextcloud account. I had given myself a month to stop using apple’s hide my email service and created new email addresses with my .ca domain. My ISP uses an exchange server for their email hosting, I am guessing that when they decided to get out of the email game they just went with the most inexpensive option for legacy users. I have sorted out everything so that all of that everything going there now has its own address.
Oo, oo! Try that line with the EU, next! I’m sure it will go over great!

They have (read the article) and I don’t see our idiots in government abandoning MS products over it any time soon.
I am fairly sure they have tried that line Like here. Almost all of my personal data is off of US servers now, I do a lot to combat spam which also does a lot to keep some of my data off of US ad servers.
