US Supreme Court just blew up EU-US Data Transfers (noyb.eu)

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.

Yeah of course you do; because you start from a position of American exceptionalism and then just imagine backwards.

Oh yeah? What's your beacon of a country? England? France? China? Russia?

The fact is we were generally dragging the world (in hand with Europe) towards better ideals, like equal rights for all, democracy, and eliminating low level corruption.

It wasn't always the case, and was certainly in fits and starts. But in our absence I don't see China or India having that generally positive influence on the world.

Yes, there's room for improvement. But if we're at a C while most other countries are content with an F, well...

USAID has done a lot of good around the world.
