"On Monday, the US Supreme Court decided in Trump v. Slaughter that the US
Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) may not be independent anymore. Since 2000,
the EU has relied on the “independent” FTC as the enforcer of EU-US deals on
personal data. According to EU treaty law, such oversight must be independent.
In the current EU-US deal, the European Commission relies on the independent
FTC 259 (!) times. Max Schrems: “Given that there are no independent
authorities in the US anymore, we call on the European Commission to orderly
withdraw the adequacy decision on the US.”"
