The EU General Court upheld the validity of the 2023 data transfer agreement between the EU and the US, dismissing a complaint by French MEP Philippe Latombe regarding data collection practices. The decision is seen as beneficial for over 2,800 US companies and provides stability for cross-border data flows. Previous agreements were invalidated in 2015 and 2020, and the current geopolitical context may influence future challenges. Latombe may appeal to the EU Court of Justice, which has a history of ruling against EU-U.S. data adequacy decisions.
