## Why Bulgaria

Sofia is our lowest-cost location. Bulgaria annulled blanket retention in 2015 and now requires per-request judicial authorisation. Good Frankfurt path at 34 ms, EU jurisdiction, and the best price per gigabyte of NVMe on the network.

**Trade-off:** Cheapest euro-adjacent capacity we operate and a real anti-retention precedent, but it is still an EU member state with full mutual-recognition obligations. Transit is thinner than Amsterdam.
