Legal (Pillar 02)
Who can seize it? — The second of the five pillars. Asks who can compel production of your data. Residency does not answer it: a provider that answers to a foreign government answers for your data wherever the server sits. SkyeConnex answers it by ensuring no single operator or jurisdiction ever holds a reconstructable share.
The question
A subpoena under the CLOUD Act, FISA or an equivalent reaches the provider, not the country. Storing in-region does not change who can be compelled.
The architectural answer
Because reconstruction requires a quorum of shards spread across the jurisdictions you chose, a single compulsion produces fragments rather than files. The request fails on arithmetic rather than on appeal.
