ABSTRACT Several initiatives are underway to address the jurisdictional and conflicts-of-law challenges triggered by the ubiquity of cloud data storage. By introducing a new approach for international cooperation through the Clarifying Lawful Overseas Use of Data Act (CLOUD Act), the United States of America (US) leads the cross-border data access reform agenda. The US approach deserves closer scrutiny, given its impact in shaping international standards that govern law enforcement access to cloud data, as well as its influence on other impending reform initiatives. While a number of blogs and reports have been written about the CLOUD Act, a comprehensive academic analysis appears to be lacking. This article addresses this gap by examining the extraterritorial reach of the US government’s law enforcement powers, and conversely the powers of foreign governments to obtain data held by US-based service providers. Most importantly, this article scrutinises the adequacy of the substantive and procedural safeguards stipulated under the CLOUD Act.

监管执法部门跨境获取电子证据:美国的做法

摘要 一些举措正在进行中,以解决无处不在的云数据存储引发的管辖权和法律冲突挑战。美利坚合众国(US)通过《澄清海外数据合法使用法案》(CLOUD Act)引入了一种新的国际合作方法,引领了跨境数据访问改革议程。美国的做法值得更仔细地审查,因为它在制定管理执法部门访问云数据的国际标准方面具有影响力,并且对其他即将进行的改革举措也有影响。虽然已经写了许多关于 CLOUD 法案的博客和报告,但似乎缺乏全面的学术分析。本文通过研究美国政府执法权力的域外范围来弥补这一差距,相反,外国政府有权获取美国服务提供商持有的数据。最重要的是,本文审查了 CLOUD 法案规定的实质性和程序性保障措施的充分性。
