"On Monday, the US Supreme Court decided in Trump v. Slaughter that the US Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) may not be independent anymore. Since 2000, the EU has relied on the “independent” FTC as the enforcer of EU-US deals on personal data. According to EU treaty law, such oversight must be independent. In the current EU-US deal, the European Commission relies on the independent FTC 259 (!) times. Max Schrems: “Given that there are no independent authorities in the US anymore, we call on the European Commission to orderly withdraw the adequacy decision on the US.”"

⚖️ In light of the upcoming US #SupremeCourt ruling in #Trump v. Slaughter, we took a detailed look at the implications for US-EU #datatransfers. In short: It's time for EU companies to prepare for more trouble to come.

USMCA (the trade agreement between the U.S., Mexico, and Canada) quietly transformed how data moves across North America.
It restricts data-localization requirements, protects cross-border data transfers, and limits how countries can regulate digital services.
This means trade law now directly influences privacy, cloud hosting, fintech, and digital business across the continent.

The EU has granted both Argentina and Uruguay GDPR “adequacy” status, recognizing that their data-protection frameworks meet EU standards.
This means personal data can move between the EU and these countries without additional transfer mechanisms like SCCs.
For organizations operating across Europe and Latin America, this is a major compliance advantage.

This is how independent oversight looks like in the US: the president can just fire everybody.
When are you going to pull the plug from EU-US #datatransfers dear @EUCommission ?
Deafening #Commission silence with no credible #EU-US data oversight left

Perhaps I should add that if U.S. Privacy and Civil Liberties Oversight Board does not function, it is very probably enough for EU Comission to declare EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework invalid. This would mean severe challenges.
My guess: we have not seen how crazy things Trump administration is able to do. We can expect very strange moves.
The big question from European point of view is whether the use of services of U.S. based companies is rational at all given all this uncertainty and turmoil?

#USA #EU #DPF #DataTransfers #Privacy: "In July 2023, the European Commission published an adequacy decision on the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (DPF) – the third attempt to broker a lasting agreement on transatlantic data transfers. While the DPF has made important strides compared to its predecessors, it’ll likely face yet another challenge before the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU). To mitigate the risks of another disputed agreement, the EU and US should turn to a toolbox approach to cross-border data transfers – starting with joint R&D investment in Privacy-Enhancing Technologies (PETs).
The stakes of this recurring failure are high – according to AmCham EU, cross-border data flows account ‘for more than half of Europe’s global data flows and for half of the US’ total,’ and 90 % of EU-based companies rely on transatlantic data flows. Most importantly, without an agreement, transatlantic data transfers are more susceptible to legal uncertainty, putting the fundamental rights of European citizens at risk."

Reading Time: 2 minutes
There was a time when I spent eight hours a day transferring footage from Beta SP, DV, DVcam, DVCpro and other tape formats to a digital format to be part of a media asset management system. A 63 minute tape would take at least 63 minutes to digitise. Back in those days we moved video files in real time.
When streamling live content I would wait for several hours for the program to end. I would watch basketball, curling and bobsledding, biathlon, but also NATO press conferences and more. You had to be there, ready to react if there was a problem. This was before YouTube streaming standardised things. I would set the akamai end points and start the encoders and recording, and then wait.
At the same time I would often have to wait for files to be transferred from the local computer to an FTP account. Sometimes this would add an hour or two to the shift.
Later on it was waiting for data to move from one drive to another. When I left for my walk today it said that I had about four hours left. Now it tells me that I have about two hours left. On a mac two hours means less than three hours and four hours means less than five. You add one hour to get a better estimate of time remaining.
On a mac there is a way to get a more granular view of how fast files are moving between drives. Right click and chose get info for the source, and the destination folders. You can then watch as data is moved between the two. When the transfer is finished you can check whether the byte number from Folder A is the same as for Folder B. If it is then you can assume that the transfer was a success. If it isn’t you can spend time finding why there is a difference. In this scenario I am not deleting anything so I will check later.
What I am doing now is time consuming but once I finish moving data from this drive it will be much faster. It’s slow because there are no duplicates yet. Once there are this process will go much faster. That’s the stage I am impatient for.
And Finally
Digitising footage or moving data from one drive to another is sometimes time consuming and boring, as is the case at the moment, but it’s because most of the work was done over the last two weeks. Now it’s about backing up that work. Tomorrow or Sunday I will start consolidating all that data and that will require me to be attentive again.
When I duplicate the eight terabyte drive I will use a Pi 4 for the task. I will set it to run and check it when it’s done.

#EU #USA #DataProtection #DataTransfers: "It's Groundhog Day for transatlantic data flows.
French lawmaker Philippe Latombe, a member of parliament, announced Thursday he is challenging before the European Union's General Court a new transatlantic deal allowing companies to freely transfer data between the EU and the United States — potentially opening the door to years of legal wrangling.
The move comes less than two months after the European Commission and the U.S. government supposedly ended years of legal limbo for companies."

#EU #USA #DataProtection #Privacy #DataTransfers: "In two landmark rulings in 2015 and 2020, the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) declared EU-US data transfers illegal. These decisions are retroactive, which means there was no legal basis for said transfers between the year 2000 and 2023. Nevertheless, most EU companies kept using services like Google Analytics or tracking tools by Meta which entail unlawful data transfers to the USA. A new analysis of noyb's 101 complaints on that matter now shows how a combination of inactive data protection authorities and new deals by the European Commission have lead to 23 years of privacy violations."

So, EU-US #DataTransfers were ruled to be illegal by the Court of Justice of the European Union (#CJEU).
TWICE.
Now #UrsulaVonDerLeyen and #JoeBiden have found a solution: just rename the existing agreement, make some cosmetical changes, then declare the problem to be solved. Done!
Shame on you, @EU_Commission! 😡
Not that I'm surprised. Business is simply more important to them than our #privacy. 😟

#EU #USA #DataTransfers #DataProtection #CJEU: "Third attempt of the European Commission to get a stable agreement on EU-US data transfers will be likely back at the Court of Justice (CJEU) in a matter of months. The allegedly "new" Trans-Atlantic Data Privacy Framework is largely a copy of the failed "Privacy Shield". Despite the European Commission's public relations efforts, there is little change in US law or the approach taken by the EU. The fundamental problem with FISA 702 was not addressed by the US, as the US still takes the view that only US persons are worthy of constitutional rights."
