On 1st December 2009 the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union came into effect. Article 8 about Protection of personal data is quite clear. The European Commissioner for Justice, Fundamental Rights and Citizenship wants to bargain stronger rules for a long time. It does not seem as if the Safe Harbor Principles get really followed or even cared about. How long does it still take to understand that there is no legal basis nor a foundation of a contract anymore to uphold this deal from 2000? This deal should get recalled.
They always say that TTIP should not weaken european standards and laws, but didn't they say the same about Safe Harbor? 
And what are the real conditions? Safe Harbor is even only a deal, not a legal contract! How would it be with TTIP?
