Just as the title asks, where is lemmy.ca hosted?

I have flagfox installed on my firefox.

It tells me that lemmy.ca is hosted in Washington state. Link: https://iplookup.flagfox.net/?ip=208.87.97.51&host=lemmy.ca. I’d like to know if this is accurate.

Ideally I’d like to have the data be hosted in Canada and hence under Canadian law as opposed to US law.

I’d also be interested in hearing other opinions on this.

    It’s hosted on a dedicated server in Seattle.

    Hosting items within Canada isn’t necessarily the panacea that our Canadian law might suggest. Ever watched traffic go cross-country? Somehow, at least Telus is getting away with shipping traffic through the states.

      If data sovereignty isn’t mentioned in the contract, then you must not need it.
