He argued that information about Europeans sent to US servers could be used by US law enforcement.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>He lodged the case after former National Security Agency (NSA) contractor Edward Snowden in 2013 showed that the agency was conducting mass surveillance on US citizens and foreigners through Google, Microsoft, Facebook and other tech giants.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Schrems&#8217; lawsuit resulted in the CJEU in 2015 invalidating the EU-US <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/top-eu-court-sinks-safe-habour-over-us-spying-and-rattles-tech-industry\/\">Safe Harbor principle<\/a>, which for 15 years permitted organizations to send data from Europe to the US.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The demise of Safe Harbor gave birth to the EU-US Privacy Shield, which came into effect in August 2016. But Schrems filed another lawsuit and in July the ECJ ruled that the new agreement too violated GDPR rules in what is referred to as the &#8216;Schrems II&#8217; ruling.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Brill says Microsoft promises to contest all government requests for public-sector or enterprise customer data where it has a lawful reason to.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This strong commitment goes beyond the proposed recommendations of the EDPB,&#8221; said Brill.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Microsoft also promises to &#8220;provide monetary compensation to these customers&#8217; users if we disclose their data in response to a government request in violation of&#8221; GDPR.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It shows Microsoft is confident that we will protect our public-sector and enterprise customers&#8217; data and not
