This is completely unrealistic. If the [local jurisdiction government] is after your data, they'll have your host, ISP, and anyone else give it to them.

(Inexplicable downtime = your server being imaged.)

Believing anything else, IMO, is purely delusional.

Well, the US isn’t the local jurisdiction.

I’m in Germany, my users are in Germany, and if I host with DO in Frankfurt, I have to trust that my data stays in Frankfurt.
