What countries do you think would be less likely to disclose your private data? I was thinking of either Switzerland or Belarus. But here’s some things to consider:

• Don’t assume that just because countries have bad relations that they won’t share private information with each other. For example, in 2021 the Mayor of Lisbon disclosed personal information of Russian immigrants in Portugal with the Russian government. This was an act of incompetence which resulted in a 1.2M€ fine. But the damage was done.
• Even if there are laws in place, the hosting company might have sloppy procedures in place and disclose your private information.
• The country should also not be the target of heavy sanctions because you might get in trouble for trying to do business with them.

So which countries do you recommend?
