(oh btw "We are in X country which is not in N eyes" is just marketing)

Why do you say this? There are real data-sharing agreements between the Eyes.

Doesn't even need some complicated backdoors or anything it just needs to find an OPSEC slip-up

This already happened with kolektiva, unfortunately, but from what I hear they've since strengthened their security.

  1. There's data-sharing agreements with more than just the N eyes countries
  2. If there's an international warrant for that data the company is obliged to comply regardless

The only countries in which n° 2 doesn't apply for the US are countries you really don't want your data in either.

In short, however: if a government really wants your data it will find a way to get it no matter where you store that data, so the best thing is to simply not store that data at all, Mullvad and Signal don't do that.
