Jenny has been crowdfunding her UK based anti-FATCA lawsuit. Because her case is based on the claim that the FATCA IGAs violate the GDPR, the case raises issues that impact all IGAs.
In this inverview, Filippo Noseda explains the historical origins of privacy law in the context of EU human rights principles. He also explains why the FATCA flow of information is disproportionate to the objectives sought.
Following a negative decision from government agencies Jenny and Filippo Noseda intend to bring a "judicial review" application in the UK courts. This application is important and will cost a great deal of money.
After listinging to this podcast, you will better understand the objectives and basis of this lawsuit and why it is your interests to contribute.
To see a snapshot of only some of the work done by Mr. Noseda see his permanent online repository here.
The outcome in this lawsuit is likely to have a huge impact on how other FATCA lawsuits (including the Canadian ADSC lawsuit) end up.
Your contributions to Jenny's lawsuit are essential - donate here.

A fascinating interview with one of the early "Anti-FATCA Pioneers".
Topics include:
- the "Oh My God" moment: what it means and how to respond to it
- the EU petition
- Jenny's anti-FATCA "GDPR" based lawsuit
- the need for improving the support for these initiatives
The problem of using FATCA to support US Extraterritorial taxation is larger than the problems of any one individual.
More help is required ...

June 25, 2020 - Participants include:
Dr. Karen Alpert - @FixTheTaxTreaty
John Richardson - @ExpatriationLaw
Part 3: Dr. Alpert and John Richardson continue the discussion of what it means to be a nonresident alien and how nonresidents are treated by the US tax system. In Part 3, we discuss how US IRAs and 401ks are taxed to nonresident aliens. Hint: You need to understand the US rules, the local rules and how the tax treaty may modify those rules. This is a difficult and fascinating topic with huge consequences!
Nonresident aliens who created IRAs and 401ks in the United States will find this of particular interest.

Part 2: Dr. Alpert and John Richardson continue the discussion of what it means to be a nonresident alien and how nonresidents are treated by the US tax system. In Part 2, we discuss how the US taxation of US source income received by nonresident aliens should impact the decision of whether to renounce US citizenship. Hint: The more US source income you have, the more likely that you could increase your US taxes if you renounce. To be forewarned is to be forearmed.

There is a difference between the rules for taxation and the rules for immigration. It's entirely possible to have lost the right under US immigration law to live in the United States, but still be subject to US worldwide taxation.
