The Privacy Shield framework is supposed to protect companies that
transfer personal data from the EU to the US. The US promised the EU
that it would provide data protection and put some limits on the US'
mass surveillance. Some members of the EU parliament are calling for
Privacy Shield to be suspended or at least re-negotiated. The US
Department of Commerce allowed known NSA contractors to join the
Privacy Shield program.

Privacy Shield, if I remember correctly, is the NSA's industrial spying
collaboration group. In return for not spying on the company's business
the company is expected to GIVE the NSA their 'metadataz' in return for
favors granted by FiveEyes.
If that sounds like to Fascism to you, you're right.
Funny thing is the alt-right wants Fascism in the US when the fact of
the matter is the US has been a Fascist state for a long time, and the
confusion of the alt-right about why that fascist state doesn't favor
them is... priceless. As I said elsewhere the alt-right is more aptly
referred to as 'alt-morons'. A... little... slow.
