> Today the International Association of Privacy Professionals published the testimony of three experts  from what it 
> called "a potentially landmark case currently before the High Court of Ireland. The current case follows the 2015 
> decision by the Court of Justice of the European Union in Schrems v. Facebook, in which the CJEU struck down the 
> EU-U.S. Safe Harbor. The current case was also brought by Austrian lawyer Max Schrems against Facebook, this time 
> challenging the adequacy of protection for personal data transferred from the EU to the U.S. under standard 
> contractual clauses by companies subject to U.S. surveillance law.”
>
> My own testimony contains over 300 pages of text, with its main task of explaining U.S. surveillance law to a 
> non-expert audience.  Among other material, the testimony presents research on all of the cases declassified by the 
> Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court since the Snowden materials became public.
