美国和欧盟日前就保护电子个人数据隐私达成一致,从而扫清了阻止美国和欧洲通过互联网发展电子商务的一大障碍。新协议将适用于开展互联网电子商务的企业。 自从欧盟在1998年10月通过立法,宣布禁止美国在线、贝尔.大西洋公司等美国企业横跨大西洋发送消费者的个人数据以来,美国和欧盟就一直在数据隐私问题上争论不休。

The United States and the EU have recently reached an agreement on the protection of the privacy of electronic personal data, thus clearing up a major obstacle to preventing the United States and Europe from developing e-commerce over the Internet. The new agreement will apply to carry out the business of Internet e-commerce. The United States and the European Union have been debating data privacy since the EU passed legislation in October 1998 that announced the ban on the transmission of consumer personal data across the Atlantic by American businesses such as AOL and Bell Atlantic.
