a: CISPA isn’t a full law yet. Obama still have the right to either sign it or to veto it. besides that it is likely to be tested before several courts afterwards.
b: Consider all information you have ever given to Anet , including the things you say in private chat being logged AND stored on US servers. It is an American company.

Except I’m connected to European servers, so it’s less than certain that this is actually happening, especially as you normally can’t transfer from an EU server to a NA server.

Hmmm, I’m a server admin and im cautious bout telling too much details bout what I suspect how they pulled the system together.

The EU-servers in Germany are placed there to prevent lag from too long routing issues. The login-server however is in the US. So all your login details are there. Payment info is there. And I suspect atleast the backup of the logging server (logging all text in chat and behaviour) are there too. So thats why I’m saying that you can consider all privacy-related info to exist on the servers in the us. either as a direct source or as a back-up source.
