Thought for the week: Spark for the US DOJ Rule enforcement and/or new legislation?

The IAPP raises the question of whether recent developments could prompt the U.S. Department of Justice to enforce existing data transfer rules or pursue new privacy legislation, signaling renewed attention to federal data governance.
