Even if you are right and everything is the same regarding surveillance and regulation: there are other important aspects that make the move to move european data out of the US worthwhile.

> other important aspects
like what?
I will just provide 2 examples, but you can find a lot more.
If your data is in the hands of a nation that uses this to block you from your data you should do something about it. [1]
If your data is in the hands of a nation whose representatives are threatening your territorial integrity (greenland) you should find alternatives.

Right, but next time your data may be threatened by some European idiot rather than one from the US.
To quote from my other comment:
> In my view, data can only be protected by its rightful owner. And for that, we need education, not regulation.
