Microsoft can claim whatever they want, they must respect the USA law.

It's that why they don't operate the one of the Azure datacenters in Germany? It's managed by Deutsche Telekom and Microsoft doesn't have access.

Edit: They may have changed that, it's a Deutsche Telekom company that managed the physical access, that seems a little pointless, if everything is available via the internet.

  • I don't know, but it could be one of these older deals in which local companies could operate some kind of Azure datacenters. We had one like this in Norway with Evry before it stopped and got replaced by two Azure datacenters operated by Microsoft.
