    From John Lennon@21:1/5 to All on Wed Oct 4 15:33:56 2023
    In the age of global data privacy concerns and digital commerce, how do the European Union's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the United States' varied state-level data privacy laws reconcile their divergent approaches to protecting
    individual data rights and fostering cross-border business operations?

    According to John Lennon <[email protected]>:
    In the age of global data privacy concerns and digital commerce, how do the European Union's General Data Protection
    Regulation (GDPR) and the United States' varied state-level data privacy laws reconcile their divergent approaches to
    protecting individual data rights and fostering cross-border business operations?

    The EU-US Data Privacy Framework is intended to provide protections in
    the US that are adequate for GDPR compliance. This is the third try,
    with the first two having been knocked out by EU courts as not good
    enough, so who knows how this one will do.

    At this point nobody knows how state laws relate to each other, much
    less to the GDPR. I don't think there is any case law to clarify
    how much one state's privacy law affects a business in another state
    if it has users within the first state, or vice versa.
