It's going to shake things up a bit, and I'm pretty sure I'm OK with that...

 --European Court of Justice rules US Safe Harbor invalid
(October 6, 2015)
In a decision with widespread implications for the international
transfer and processing of data - and the companies that provide these
services - the European Court of Justice has ruled the EU-US Safe
Harbour pact invalid. Experts are warning of massive disruption to
international business.

[Editor's Note (Honan): This ruling means companies in the EU are in
violation of EU Data Protection laws when transferring personal data to
US companies, even if those companies are part of the US Safe Harbor
program. It also means, should Microsoft lose their appeal regarding US
law enforcement accessing a mailbox on one of their servers in Dublin,
then US tech companies will have severe challenges in doing business in
the EU.]
