Abstract

Due to the extensive mobility of personal information and the transnational nature of the countries of origin and collection of personal information, the principle of territorial jurisdiction cannot protect the security of personal information in the country, so the principle of jurisdiction is bound to break the shackles of the territorial principle. Due to the EU's historical tradition of protecting privacy, the EU General Data Regulation (GDPR) has pioneered the extraterritorial application of personal information legislation, and countries have imitated the GDPR to formulate their own personal information legislation, thus forming the "Brussels effect". As the EU's General Data Regulation has pioneered the extraterritorial application of personal information legislation, countries have followed the example of the General Data Regulation in enacting their own personal information legislation, thus creating a "Brussels effect".
