Do you sign business associate agreements with your colo facility, ISP, and landlord? They also are physically capable of accessing your data, even though they are legally or contractually forbidden from doing so.

The orgs that I have worked with draw the line somewhere between colo and ISP. Anyone with potential access to unencrypted network traffic or whom is operating equipment containing affected data. Usually the lawyers can agree to contractural terms for the landlord without a BAA

I'm not arguing that it makes sense, just that it happens.
