     I  assume that also that last remark was sarcasm, because, like most   
   European (and other) countries, your government is probably also using   
   'services' from US companies, which fall under US jurisdiction, even if   
   the servers containing your data are in the UK. So the US   
   administration, etc. can not only access your data, but can disable your   
   (government's) access to it. On a small scale this is already practiced   
   (ICC judges, etc.), so 'we' only have to wait for a full-scale event.
