Microsoft's legal chief for France: "No, I cannot guarantee that."

Is the "sovereign cloud" nothing but "sovereign washing"?

If it's true open source, it doesn't matter where it is developed - as long as it can be hosted where it is used in compliance with applicable law. But yes, there is a lot of sovereignty-washing going on right now.

@Tutanota there's a relatively famous cookie brand, Digestive, which uses an infinitesimal footnote on their packaging: "The brand name being 'Digestive' doesn't neccesarily imply the product has any digestive property". Same case here.

This is obvious. Not only for Microsoft. I don’t understand why people in charge refuse to understand this simple fact.
