Hey DO-Team, people are still waiting for an answer, could you please update this post?
This is a good question that remains unanswered. The Digial ocean DPA is not updated accordingly to cover the latest regulation in the privacy shield.
Me too.
Waiting for an updates…
Any updates on this issue? Writing from a meeting about this very thing!
Would like an answer to this, too. Having a few customers already say they can’t sign contracts with us as long as one of our subcontractors operates under the now “illegal” privacy shield.
me too please
