“This new [framework] is very closely modelled on the old [framework], isn’t it?” That is, the CJEU says that people ought to be able to sue the host country regarding their privacy rights, the US says no way foreigners have privacy rights (that they can sue the US over, in something that is actually part of the judiciary), US and EU diplomats set up some sort of agreement and announce it loudly, privacy activists sue, half a dozen years pass, the CJEU says the agreement hasn’t actually fixed anything about the US system, rinse and repeat for the last two decades. This is starting to seem like a deliberate stall, honestly, and I’m not sure how it could be prevented.
