Efter Schrems II: EU-politikere dumper ny dataaftale med USA

Det er ret ligegyldigt hvad alle andre siger. Kommisionen kan egenhændigt beslutte hvad de vil. Og mon ikke de gør det?

However the final decision to adopt adequacy is up to the Commission alone

Negotiations between the EU and the U.S. to replace the most recently defunct Privacy Shield deal took until this March to arrive at a political agreement, and until October before U.S. President Joe Biden signed an executive order (EO) to implement the replacement data transfer agreement.

The signing of the EO handed the baton back to the Commission — and now it’s produced a draft adequacy agreement, as the bloc dubs such deals, based on the text signed by the U.S. administration (and accompanying regulations issued by the U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland), which implemented into U.S. law the agreement-in-principle signed by the EU and U.S. back in March.

The next stage in the process is a review of the draft decision by other EU institutions, including the European Data Protection Board (EDPB) and a committee of EU Member States, along with scrutiny by members of the European Parliament. However the final decision to adopt adequacy is up to the Commission alone — so today’s draft decision marks a significant step along the road to sealing a new deal.

Hvor er det heldigt at vi har et ansvarligt EU-parlament, når det Danske folketing ikke ønsker at beskytte egne borgere - vi har jo ikke noget at skjule vel?

Så for h......, nu kommer der potentielt lig ud af skabet.

Der vil være flere virksomheder, der nu må anerkende at der ikke bliver nogen Safe-Haubor III, og at de nu skal begynde at hjemtage databehandling til tjenester der ikke er baseret på AWS, Azure, Google osv.
