Well, I guess you succeeded in the impossible task of convincing someone in an online discussion!

Well, I'm not an IT expert, so I'm not sure I got what you said to me

Isn’t data encryption on servers enough to keep my files reasonably safe from everyone, including the hosting company?

If the system were FOSS, could a law force the provider to insert a decryption backdoor without the user knowing?

In short terms: is on-device scanning for such systems technologically feasible?

Honestly, I really like cloud computing and cloud storage.
Since we’re almost always connected to the internet, it’s an incredibly useful solution.

I'd be happy to pay a subscription fee if:
1) my data is properly encrypted
2) my data stays on a European server
3) my money doesn't go to a dictatorship country (such as where Bezos lives)
4) the system I'm using is FOSS
