The European Court Of Justice was dishing out rulings that were very in line with the data protection community. It scared Google by creating the right to be forgotten, it scared the EU commission by nullifying the EU-US data transfer agreements, it scared Facebook by making it a joint controller with site operators or websites that use their plugins, it scared the German federal ministries by treating the IP address as personal data. This however seems to be a thing of the past.
