Hey, Brits. Your Google data is leaving the EU before you are: Hoard to be shipped from Ireland to US next month

Re: @John Oates

Is there anything we can do right now?

I would have said a few months ago that the government would not be so stupid as to weaken data protection rules here in a way that put data exchange with the EU in jeopardy. Now I'm not nearly so sure. You presently have the right to ask for your data to be deleted (but no right to verify that), but the continued existence of that right is purely now a matter for the UK/British/English/London or whatever locus of independent government should emerge from the post-Brexit fragmentation.

You still have until the end of the year to establish residence in another EU country...
