President Joe Biden signed a new Executive Order intended to address EU concerns over US surveillance practices. The order retains bulk surveillance and creates a non‑judicial “Data Protection Review Court,” which the source says does not meet CJEU requirements for proportionality and judicial redress.

Why it matters: The order affects EU‑US data transfers by likely failing EU adequacy standards, impacting cross‑border data flows.
