Facebook tells Irish court that probe threatens its EU operations -newspaper
Facebook has told Ireland's High Court it cannot see how its services could operate in the European Union if regulators freeze its data transfer mechanism, the Sunday Business Post reported, citing court documents seen by the paper. The U.S. social media giant last week said that the Irish Data Protection Commission, its lead EU regulator, had made a preliminary decision that the mechanism it uses to transfer data from the EU to the United States "cannot in practice be used". Facebook requested and secured a temporary freeze on the order and a court review in the Irish High Court, which is due to consider the issue in November.
