It is already a trend, but until last week it was the realm of huge companies, bureaucrats, weapon manufacturers and other security-industry types. Now there's potential for going mainstream.
This said, I wouldn't trust a French provider or an Italian provider with anything too sensitive: their police forces have a history of being incredibly heavy-handed when dealing with data. I remember one occasion in mid-00's when the Italian police investigating G8 riots (or something like that) raided a data centre, took home all disks they could find, cloned them all, then went through them with a fine comb, all because one mailing list hosted on one of those servers might have been tangentially related to whatever they were investigating. I'd be surprised if things were much better in other European countries, to be honest, but I guess Norway is one of the best bets (with UK/Ireland being among the worst, of course).
