Transatlantic digital economy and data protection :: State-of-Play and future implications for the EU's external policies / [Recurso electrónico]PDF .-- Brussels : Directorate-General for External Policies of the Union , July 2016 .-- 57 p.

The internet has created a new global nervous system affecting all aspects of
European society, politics and business; this will accelerate as we enter the era of the
digitisation of everything. This digital transformation has enormous implications for
the transatlantic relationship, especially in light of the differences that have
developed concerning the appropriate balance between personal data protection,
economic growth and national security. This study details how digital and data issues
will be handled in the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership; explains how
this intersects with the new EU-US Privacy Shield Agreement and the broader
implications of the judgment on Safe Harbour; and explores key issues in transatlantic
law enforcement cooperation before highlighting a few broader foreign policy issues
and laying forth some recommendations for the EU institutions.
