			In 2026, GrapheneOS announced it was leaving the cloud provider [[OVHcloud]] by removing all active servers from France and citing concerns about France’s legal approach to encryption, surveillance, and data sovereignty rather than any technical issue with the company’s infrastructure. According to GrapheneOS, France’s support for proposed EU legislation commonly referred to as [[Chat Control]], which could require scanning user communications, raises the risk of encryption backdoors and government access to devices. OVHcloud CEO [[Octave Klaba]] responded that no incident had occurred involving GrapheneOS servers, suggesting the public explanation might imply a technical problem when none existed.
