The 14-Eyes alliance, for hosting buyers

Five/Nine/Fourteen Eyes is an intelligence-sharing club, not a hosting statute. It still changes where you incorporate.

Who

Five Eyes: US, UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand. Nine and Fourteen add several European states. It is about signals intelligence sharing, not a single hosting law. Buyers use it as a shorthand when they compare offshore VPS catalogs.

Why hosts mention it

The question is: will a local agency casually share subscriber data with a US process? Corporate domicile outside the club is one design choice. Datacenter country is another. They are not the same. Netherlands is in Fourteen Eyes and we still rack there for AMS-IX. You can pick Iceland or Switzerland instead and still pay the VPS with Monero.

What it does not do

It does not void GDPR, FADP, or local criminal procedure. It does not make a Bitcoin payment invisible. Rank Eyes-membership after AUP, KYC, and coin list, not before.
