President Biden issued Executive Order On Enhancing Safeguards For United States Signals Intelligence Activities on 07 October 2022, enhancing the safeguards afforded to global citizens and laying the foundation for adequacy findings by the European Commission and Secretary of State for ex-EEA and ex-UK restricted international data transfers. While the risk of legal challenge to any adequacy finding would remain, such findings would provide welcome respite for the millions of data exporters who are neither equipped nor resourced to conduct wide ranging reviews of foreign legislation at an individual level.
