What law are you referring to? I'm pretty sure no such law exists. The US government can't request any data as they please. EU governments can and do request data as well since US companies operate in EU countries.

It's the CLOUD ACT. An EU entity's data stored in the EU can be requested without going through an EU court, which is insane.
