Re: ... this will validate EU/US data transfers once more...
Privacy Shield won't change the fact that it, and any contractual provisions, aren't worth anything because of US legislation.
That was what the Court had an issue with and *nothing* has changed. For an author so obsessed with reading things, Court judgements are worth reading too.
What it will do is give companies enough legal cover to claim that they are compliant until someone like Max takes another case through the courts.
