What does that even mean, though? Data does not have a location. It's just information. The fact that "I live on 123 Oak Street" is data. It's not anywhere. How can you say that it's in a particular country? This post might be read by people all across the world. Now that information is in many different countries? Or none at all? Is it simply about where the physical hard drive containing a textual representation of that data is located? What makes that relevant?

These laws seem to have been written for the age of fax machines, not for today.

The U.S. needs this!
