I have been reading about about people discussing encryption with data when using cloud-based storage. I am also aware cloud providers may have servers around the world, and you may not know where in the world your data resides.
I believe the US still has export laws related to the type and use of encryption. I have not read any cloud provider's TOS and liabilities. In light of all this, where does responsibility lie if someone in the US encrypts data in a manner that prohibits export, places said data into the cloud, and any of the bits land on a server in a country on the prohibited list? How does this get handled/managed/addressed? I do not have a need for any of this, but the thought of this recently crossed my mind so I figured I'd throw it out there and see who had what insights.
