When it comes to individual rights (as opposed to corporate) better it goes too far, than come up short.

I realize I'm being idealistic in my stance, but I'm not a fan of going too far either. One thing I'm very happy to see in the EU is the focus on there being a standard. Today it it makes it difficult to manage a globally focused user base with so many different legal requirements. The proposed standard in the EU would make it easy to do business here and have a better framework for cooperation with the US than the safe harbor structure today.
