..From corporations to US law enforcement and spy agencies...

How exactly is this different from EU and UK law, which also permits secret transfer of customer data from corporations to EU and UK law enforcement and spy agencies?

Evidently there is *some* difference, because the courts have been finding a difference, but is it only that EU spy agencies are classified categorically as 'not American'?

Because 'transfer to US law enforcement and spy agencies" is always quoted as the fundamental objection, I was surprised* to see exactly the same exemption in EU/UK regulations

*Yes, I was that naive
