JURISDICTIONUS
NOTEPaid plans cannot be bought privately: Stripe and PayPal are the only rails and both link a real identity to the account. The terms name Ente Technologies, Inc. and set Delaware governing law with venue in Santa Clara County, so US legal process reaches account metadata even though file contents are end-to-end encrypted.
