Cloud hosting platform Vercel is under fire after its CEO, Guillermo Rauch, shared a photo of a meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Monday.

The image, which Rauch framed around discussions of AI education and “keeping our free societies ahead”, was immediately read as a political statement given Israel’s genocide in Gaza.

Within hours, developers and users across social media declared they were cancelling their Vercel subscriptions, deleting accounts, and migrating projects to competitors like Netlify, Cloudflare Pages, Fly.io, and Render.

        Wrong, all provide encrypted no knowledge storage, Internext even with Quantum encryption. Privacy protection is mandatory in the EU to be able to operate.

          What I said was that they provide unencrypted storage. It’s possible, for example, to store something unencrypted on PCloud. It’s not possible to do that on Mega.

            I don’t know, well AFAIK Filen in its free version (10GB) isn’t encrypted, but why do you want an unencrypted storage?

              I’m saying we should avoid providers that offer unencrypted storage, like pcloud, filen, etc.
