Who is &quot;they&quot; that should be taking this up with the American government? You seem to think this is a new policy, but it isn&#x27;t.<p>Twenty years ago, the EU wrote the Data Protection Directive, which said that companies handling personal data of EU citizens much abide by certain rules. The US Department of Commerce developed a process that would supposedly allow US companies to comply with these rules even if they copy data to the US. Recently, the European Court of Justice said that the mentioned process, considering what is now known, is not enough to ensure those rules are followed.<p>I&#x27;m not sure what you expected the court to do. It&#x27;s those corporations that should take this up with their government, not the EU court, which has no business with the US government.
