"Via warrant or subpoena" You want American companies to ignore court orders. This isn't about privacy protections. You want EU data to be immune from court orders.
- detaro 5y agocourt orders the targeted persons have no legal recourse against. That's one of the key points that killed the recognition of US law as adequate: That you can be targeted by surveillance that has no effective legal oversight into if you are a valid target, and you have no legal recourse against this.
- jeroenhd 5y agoWhat the EU wants is to permit for adequate privacy regulations so that American businesses can operate with the necessary privacy guarantees without breaking the law. The USA would not accept their American companies to become subject to European subpoenas and courts, but does enforce these requirements when the situation is reversed. Obviously the EU doesn't like that. Nobody wants American companies to break the law, the EU just wants American law to be better. America disagrees, and there's nothing wrong with that, but that obviously has an impact on the economic viability of the European market for American companies.
