WASHINGTON (AN) — U.S. President Joe Biden has signed an executive order aimed at safeguarding citizens' personal information from American intelligence intrusions, a pivotal step in a transatlantic data privacy agreement with the European Union.
Signed on Friday, Biden's executive order seeks to reassure European countries, often wary of U.S. government surveillance, that their data will be secure on U.S. soil. This move is also crucial for ensuring that tech giants and thousands of other companies can continue operating efficiently across the Atlantic.
