11 yrs without ever receiving a warrant.

That seems quite impressive.

And it suggests to me your customers are well-behaved. Is that how you would characterise them?

I also think it's a great selling point.

Maybe it's desirable not to have "unruly neighbors" in your "cloud service neighborhood".

We've seen plenty of examples what can happen when such neighbors draw attention to themselves.

The key is that our service is cold storage only. All access, regardless of protocol, is with a username and password - there is no anonymous access to data stored here.

So there is no "hosting" or publishing of any kind.

The unintended consequence of this that we are really starting to appreciate is that we are NOT an ISP. The definition is fluid, and there's no guarantee about future regulation, but up to this point every one of the major "provider" laws has not applied to us as we are currently structured.

So the reporting, the LEA interfaces, the logging, etc. - we have no more responsibility to perform these items than your bakery does.

We are not a web host, and we are not an ISP.
