Just received this:

Hello!

I'm writing to let you know that, as part of our work to move our business operations from the United States to Europe, we are rolling out changes to our terms of service and privacy policy. As promised, we are giving you two weeks notice and a chance to participate in the discussion about the proposed changes.

You can review the diff of the proposed changes on the sr.ht-dev mailing list:

https://lists.sr.ht/~sircmpwn/sr.ht-dev/patches/60282

The changes will take effect from July 10th, provided that there are no further revisions based on user feedback. Further changes will be discussed on sr.ht-dev rather than emailed to you directly.

If you have questions or comments, you can participate in this thread, or you can reply to this email to reach support directly.

Honestly a good idea. I don't see a single negative that can come from this, plus they are going to be more immune from unchecked governments

Well, the obvious negative one should always consider is whether the consumer needs to pay more. A nonzero number of employee hours were spent on this migration and we should expect to see that reflected in the accounting somewhere.

I would say the same thing for EU to US migrations, to be clear. This is just something that should always be considered reflexively.
