Does anyone know what happens when you go roaming?

- Lets say in a fairytale world this all works out. Does anyone know what happens when you go roaming? - A lot of people travel for work or for holidays etc, and will want to log into their home accounts back in the EU.

- When that happens does local overseas law apply and the current IP gets snooped on, or will logging into an EU domain from overseas provide a privacy safeguard i.e. logging into a facebook.ie account from a US city will be protected from snooping?

- If not, everyone will just get snooped eventually anyway, with all their data hoovered at that moment in time which is a farce!
