Join Hivenet - the sustainable, distributed, and community-centric cloud solution. We're transforming the way data is stored and accessed for a greener future.
- Most cloud storage is a one-way door. Files go in. Someone else controls what happens next. Store with Hivenet keeps your files encrypted and distributed. You decide what stays local and what doesn't.
- The CLOUD Act (2018) lets US authorities access data held by US companies. Location doesn't matter. "Hosted in Europe" ≠ outside US legal reach. Hivenet has no US parent. No CLOUD Act exposure. Sovereignty is built into the structure. Not the contract.
- **1/** Flexera Cloud Report: average enterprise uses 2.4 public clouds. Vendor concentration is down. Vendor dependency is not.
**2/** Multi-cloud reduces exposure to any single provider. It doesn't eliminate dependency. You're still on someone else's infrastructure, pricing, and roadmap. That's a better version of the same problem. Not sovereignty. - Most companies can't answer this question: where is your data - and who holds the keys? Our CEO, @DavidGurle, sat down with City 4 VIP to explain why data sovereignty shouldn't be considered as a compliance checkbox. And why the hyperscale model has a built-in trap door. Full
- WAICF - World #AI Cannes Festival 2026 - our aftermovie is live! Two days at the Palais des Festivals alongside Policloud to show what sovereign AI infrastructure looks like when software and hardware work together. The energy was incredible, the conversations even more so.
00:00 - The direction is clear: data centers are becoming visible to regulators and residents. The operators that keep trust will be the ones that publish numbers, accept constraints, and plan for reality instead of assuming it away.
- This week’s news keeps pointing to the same bottlenecks: power, cooling, water, and permission to build. Here’s our plain-language case for why centralized storage keeps running into those walls. buff.ly/jckok4g
- If you run an LLM API, token-aware rate limits are basic hygiene. Without them, a few heavy requests can blow latency for everyone and spike cost with no warning. buff.ly/OijKa5N
- OpenAI is now explicitly responding to data center opposition with promises to pay for energy upgrades and limit water use. That’s where the conversation is moving: “prove you’re not raising our bills.” buff.ly/qH0eZdD
- Digital independence is not about isolation. It’s about being able to keep operating when policy, pricing, or access assumptions change. We laid out the forces driving that shift. buff.ly/bC18VTB
- Ireland’s LEAP plan and updated connection policy are an honest signal: large loads can still happen, but only if grid constraints and supply security are handled upfront. buff.ly/jgwTXwk
- 1/4 Data centers are becoming civic infrastructure. That means scrutiny, not vibes.Replying to @hivenet_cloud3/4 Europe is pushing for switching rights in the Data Act because lock-in still wins by default.4/4 Treat sovereignty like engineering: keys, logs, jurisdictions, portability, and a real path out.
