## Why United Kingdom

London sits on LINX and LONAP with 7 ms to Amsterdam and 71 ms to New York, which is why it is on the map. Legally it is the weakest position we offer: Five Eyes membership, retention and technical capability notices under the Investigatory Powers Act, and a criminal offence for refusing to disclose a decryption key under RIPA Part III.

**Trade-off:** The most legally intrusive address we operate, and we would rather say it than bury it. The United Kingdom is a founding Five Eyes member, the Investigatory Powers Act permits retention notices and technical capability notices, and RIPA Part III makes refusing to hand over a decryption key a criminal offence. London is here for its transit position — 1 ms local, 7 ms to Amsterdam, 71 ms to New York. Nothing about it is a privacy argument.

## Legal basis

| Claim | Instrument | Year |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Retention notices may compel operators to keep communications data for 12 months | Investigatory Powers Act 2016, Part 4 | 2016 |
| Technical capability notices may require removal of electronic protection | Investigatory Powers Act 2016, s.253 | 2016 |
| Failure to disclose a decryption key on notice is a criminal offence | Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act 2000, Part III, s.49–s.53 | 2000 |
| Outside EU judicial cooperation since Brexit; UK GDPR applies domestically | Data Protection Act 2018 as amended by the EU (Withdrawal) Act 2018 | 2021 |

## Frequently asked questions

### How much is a storage in United Kingdom?

Prices run from $19.00 per month at LON-1 · Slough up to $113.50 for the largest configuration. Every plan includes DDoS scrubbing, a routed IPv6 /64, and full root access.

### Why choose United Kingdom for this?

London's position on LINX and LONAP gives 7 ms to Amsterdam and 71 ms to New York. But it is the weakest legal position we offer: the UK is a Five Eyes member, the Investigatory Powers Act allows retention and technical capability notices, and RIPA Part III makes refusing to disclose a decryption key a criminal offence. Best for UK-facing latency, financial-market proximity, transatlantic transit, and workloads with no jurisdictional requirement.

### What is the catch with United Kingdom?

This is the most legally intrusive address we operate, and we say so plainly. The UK is a founding Five Eyes member; the Investigatory Powers Act permits retention notices and technical capability notices; RIPA Part III makes refusing to hand over a decryption key a criminal offence.
