On 7 October, the Atlantic Council published a post about an Executive Order which is the next step toward establishing a new EU-US Data Privacy Framework (DPF), which will secure the free flow of personal data and thus underpins the US-EU commercial relationship.  It replaces the 2016 US-EU Privacy Shield agreement, which, according to the ECJ, failed to protect the EU citizens’ data from US government surveillance.
