Yesterday the US Supreme Court ruled that the US Federal Trade Commission ("FTC") may not be independent anymore. But being independent is the entire basis for (and only reason) why Europeans are allowed to send data from the EU to the USA.

Without this basis, you aren't allowed to use Google Analytics, to give perhaps the most concrete example for why this is a big deal.

> noyb has sent a formal letter to the European Commission today, asking the Commission to take the appropriate steps to repeal the EU-US data deal in an orderly way.
> noyb will also file a lawsuit in the coming weeks, aiming to allow the CJEU to annul the current deal. However, such a lawsuit typically takes 2-3 years until a final decision is reached.

If your employer uses Google Analytics, they better start migrating to a self-hosted solution like Matomo or Plausible.
