  • I scanned 307 "European" SaaS tools and 70% depend on US infrastructure

  • yeah that's how i see it too, it's not about being 100% pure. a eu tool with one us dependency is already miles ahead of full us big tech, and easier to finish the job later

    the audit's just there to make the hidden part visible, not to shame anyone

  • fair hit, and yeah the irony of a transparency thing being cagey isn't lost on me

    honest reason: link posts from new accounts get auto-nuked on reddit and i wasn't sure about the rules here, so i kept it out to avoid the filter, came across worse than intended

    so openly: euroseal is mine, i'm building it, the audit is real and the method's public so anyone can redo it, but yeah i've got a horse in this

    appreciate you saying it straight instead of just downvoting

  • fair. half the clean list is self-hostable foss anyway (forgejo, kimai), so no argument here. the audit's just about the ones quietly selling saas on us infra while waving an eu flag

  • all in the writeup, method + the clean ones: euroseal.pages.dev/audit. left the offender side aggregate, one scan can be wrong about a specific company

  • big ones: google's in 118 of the 307, cloudflare in front of 111, aws ~70, microsoft ~35. that's the 70%.

    clean side is mostly hetzner, some ovh and infomaniak. handful that were spotless top to bottom: forgejo, kimai, keila, solidtime, vantevo, nordname. nordname's even on desec for dns, nice. full breakdown + method here euroseal.pages.dev/audit

    didn't name the offenders one by one, a single scan can be wrong about any given company and that's not fair to pin on them
