No matter how many agreements it takes, the US and the EU will ensure that data transfer between the continents is possible. There's too much trade at risk otherwise.
This agreement puts products like Google Analytics back on firm legal footing. Bad luck for Meta that they were the one company singled out for a fine for doing what everyone else was doing in the period between agreements.
- hyperman1 3y agoI agree with the general idea of what you say, but this is not intended to put anything on a firm legal footing. As I understand it, EU privacy law is fundamentally incompatible with US spying requirements, both sides know it, neither side cares. The plan is to make one illegal agreement after another, each giving about 2 years of pseudo-protection until the slow EU legal procedures catch up. Then start anew with the next agreement.
