well, in fact, you will literally be like Google. maybe there really are some subtleties, I’m not sure because I’ve never lived in the USA. the only difference will be how much it will cost. In the end, you won’t be able to provide a mailbox for free and not trade data.
UPD: the organization has completely different service requirements. Even for non-profit organizations, no one will wait a day for you to return from work and remember the service.



It is impossible to place telephone nodes in Russia without equipping the server with threat protection equipment. Of course, I won’t buy a box for hundreds of dollars to use a home PBX, so technically I’m outside the law. =) It is also impossible to host sites with more than 10,000 visitors without registering with Roskomnadzor. and all accounts with authorization must support logging in through the public services portal or by phone number. considering that only legal entities can do this, of course I don’t do it.
The United States and the European Union have data protection laws, so if you decide to save money on hosting for friends and install a server outside the Eurozone, depending on the data you store, you are also formally violating the law.
