Google Compute Engine: Encrypting Disks with Customer-Supplied Encryption Keys

https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/disks/customer-supplied-encryption

        By default, Google Compute Engine encrypts all data at rest.
        Compute Engine handles and manages this encryption for you
        without any additional actions on your part. However, if you
        wanted to control and manage this encryption yourself, you can
        provide your own encryption keys.

You can now encrypt Google Compute Engine disks with your own
encryption key. Google does not save the key, so if you lose it,
you're out of luck. And before the haters start with the "golly, how do
I know that Google doesn't save the key somewhere?" garbage -- how do I
know that YOU really exist?

I have consulted to Google, but I am not currently 
doing so -- my opinions expressed here are mine alone.
