The United States will enact legislation giving European Union citizens the right to sue in the United States if they think their private data was released or misused, the U.S attorney general said on Wednesday. "The Obama administration is committed to seeking legislation that would ensure that ... EU citizens would have the same right to seek judicial redress for intentional or wilful disclosures of protected information and for refusal to grant access or to rectify any errors in that information, as would a U.S citizen," Attorney General Eric Holder told reporters. "This commitment - which has long been sought by the EU - reflects our resolve to move forward," he said after a meeting of EU and U.S. justice and home affairs ministers in Greece, which holds the rotating EU presidency. The EU and the United States have been negotiating since 2011 over a deal that would protect personal data exchanged between the two, as part of efforts to crack down on terrorism.
