New Privacy Laws Could Boost EU Cloud Industry

sweetpea86 writes "Cloud providers based in the European market could turn the fear, uncertainty and doubt around data protection and the U.S. Patriot Act to their advantage, according to Andy Burton, chairman of the Cloud Industry Forum. The only way that European companies can absolutely guarantee that their data doesn't end up in the hands of U.S. authorities is by choosing a provider that not only has a data centre within their jurisdiction, but is also owned by an organisation based in that jurisdiction."

Oh yes they do care! Until Allah rules all, it is the holy mission (Jihad) of Muslims (at least the Wahhabist variety) to bring all to believe ... or die if refusing. Read their diatribes. BTW, they will kill any other Muslims who do not go along with The Crusade (Muslim variety - the Christian Crusades, horribly flawed as they were, were a response to medieval Muslim terrorism).
