@rob Peter Todd criticized that Bitstamp has moved their operation to Amazon servers. Peter thinks that basically gives the NSA total access to their data.
IMO that's kind of a silly argument. What data is being worried that the NSA has access to, the customer data? Because the mere fact of even having a bank account and linking it to an exchange, sending in your identity info etc. means it is already far too late for you if your concerned about government forces. It's not like the NSA is going to swoop in and steal bitstamps bitcoins... which is the reason for this whole ordeal lol.
AWS has some of the best overall security around, even their own employees can't access anyones data (if you lose your encryption key, your hooped). Hell, even just to get near any of their servers you need to go through several physical security checkpoints
