AWS – Amazon S3 Object Ownership can now disable access control lists in the AWS China (Beijing), AWS China (Ningxia), and AWS GovCloud (US) Regions

You can now use the Amazon S3 Object Ownership setting, Bucket owner enforced, to disable access control lists (ACLs) in the AWS China (Beijing), AWS China (Ningxia), and AWS GovCloud (US) Regions, simplifying access management for data stored in S3. When you apply this bucket-level setting, every object in an S3 bucket is owned by the bucket owner, and ACLs are no longer used to grant permissions. As a result, access to your data is based on policies, including AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) policies applied to IAM identities, session policies, Amazon S3 bucket and access point policies, and Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) endpoint policies. This setting applies to both new and existing objects in a bucket, and you can control access to this setting using IAM policies. With the new S3 Object Ownership setting, you can easily review, manage, and modify access to your shared data sets in Amazon S3 using only policies.
