Interesting judgment from Germany regarding the scope of the right of access – and in particular the extent to which the rights of others (here: a person making a statement) are taken into account to exclude (or not) certain information from the scope of a response. In this particular case, the Labour Court found that […]
You won’t often find in-depth and reasoned articles on the Political Ads Regulation and Digital Services Act – this is a good one. I don’t agree with everything that is said, but it definitely deserves a wide audience for pointing out some of the issues caused by legislative ambitions detached from practical challenges of compliance.
European Parliament votes in favour of GDPR additional procedural rules. I wrote a few months ago about the concerns I have with the GDPR Procedural Regulation (GPR), highlighting its potential for abuse regarding the scope of complaints – see input here: https://lnkd.in/ef527U3N Today, the European Parliament just voted in favour of this unfortunately flawed piece […]

With the European Data Protection Board’s “stakeholder” event registration opening tomorrow in relation to its […]
Significant news from the ICO re Meta: lower price than EU, and no “less personalised ads” offering… in the UK. The “Pay or OK” type of approach is alive and well over there (in this case: for Facebook & Instagram). Compared to the EU approach, it looks like the UK regulator has taken a pragmatic stance […]
Simplification and the Draghi report in relation to EU digital laws: what could/should be done? Some thoughts I shared at an event yesterday on the topic: 1. The laws themselves are not always bad. While I have argued for getting rid of the ePrivacy Directive altogether (by taking into account overlaps with the GDPR and […]

Larsen, Deputy Head of Data Protection Unit at the Commission’s DG Justice Karolina Mojzesowicz, MEP Brando Benifei and Gibson Dunn Partner Ahmed Baladi, I then was a speaker in a debate alongside Max Schrems of noyb.eu, […]
