The reality is that privacy in the US isn't the same as it is in the EU. Making these kind of deals with the US or China will always fail.
Ultimately there's nothing to stop the US from wiping it's ass with any treaty- that's the major advantage of being a superpower.
America lives by different values as is their right.

- meepmorp 5y agoI recognize that this is merely my impression of the matter, but I don't think most Americans are that concerned about it. I very much doubt that enough are sufficiently concerned to convince enough politicians to do something about it.
- dncornholio 5y agoI don't know. It's kind of worrying that you can't host EU data in US isn't it?
- meepmorp 5y agoNot as much if you're in the EU, I guess. But, yeah, it's not the best feeling as an American.

- Cederfjard 5y agoSorry, I think you missed an important word there - how much do they make in the EU compared to US?
