Ireland too. We (essentially) don't have a military, let alone a budget line item for US-style mass surveillance projects. We're non-NATO, non-five eyes (or it's derivatives) and have a strong mechanism in place to preserve our neutrality (see "triple lock"[1]).
Being in the EU allowed this[2] landmark case to happen, which forced the issue of US companies complying with EU privacy protections.
