Linked: “The collapse of the US-EU Safe Harbor”

via Microsoft On the Issues Blog:

What is striking is the complexity that emerges when one puts these principles together. We need to protect privacy as a fundamental human right. We need a global Internet. We need to keep the public safe. And we need to find a legal path that will work on both sides of the Atlantic. We need to do all four of these things together and simultaneously. This is the privacy version of a Rubik’s Cube.

The post is well written and certainly informs the public on what’s going on. I have little confidence our representatives have the understanding of the Internet or the courage to actually fix this.
