The US claims the same

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CLOUD_Act

Lots of Americans in this thread seem to be talking down to other countries laws while being completely unaware of their own

Spot on, 727 comments, most probably by Americans, and only 2 (including yours) bringing up the CLOUD Act, the much worse US equivalent. Incredible ignorance.

  • Providing encrypted data and not providing encryption are two different things. The CLOUD act requires you to hand over data. It could be encrypted. The UK government is asking to hand over data that is also not encrypted. The two are not the same. Note : Not American.
