RAyMO Posted September 22, 2020 #1 Share Posted September 22, 2020 “In the event that [Facebook] were subject to a complete suspension of the transfer of users’ data to the US,” Yvonne Cunnane argued, “it is not clear … how, in those circumstances, it could continue to provide the Facebook and Instagram services in the EU.” https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2020/sep/22/facebook-says-it-may-quit-europe-over-ban-on-sharing-data-with-us so the EU ruled that data transferred to the US is not sufficiently protected from US snooping: 'That court found in 2015 that, because of the existence of Prism, the “Safe Harbour” agreement, which allowed US companies to transfer the data of EU citizens back home, was invalid.' This seems on face value to be the same argument used by the US government to against tiktok et al. Personally I would not lose any sleep over Facebook leaving the EU. But is it right to claim it can't operate without sharing data with the US? Do we really care that the data we provide to Facebook et al makes it way to the US or elsewhere, after all if we really cared would we put it on their ion the first place? 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papageorge1 Posted September 22, 2020 #2 Share Posted September 22, 2020 Ahh, the people of the world come together over the internet. Then people of the world get disconnected again by paranoia. I don't know how everybody else uses Facebook but when I put information on Facebook it's not going to be something I would care if any government knew about it. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Commander Travis Posted September 22, 2020 #3 Share Posted September 22, 2020 Sounds to me like an attempt at blackmail. Mr. Facebook Man clearly sees his lucrative deal with the U.S. Intelligence Services as under threat. Still, gives me another excuse for this, which is always a laugh. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
