GDPR & DMA at CEDPO: Another great discussion (and a mini bit of sparring too) with Gwendal Le Grand, together with Borja Martínez Corral and our moderator Natascha Gerlach. Readers know how often I get to write critically about the European Data Protection Board, and my first thoughts on their DMA-GDPR Guidelines drafted together with […]
Nothing like a last minute extra – just stepped in to moderate a great discussion with the excellent Herke Kranenborg and Yann Padova after their two co-speakers were unfortunately prevented from attending the CEDPO Conference (no, it wasn’t meant to be a “manel”). Great exchanges on the pragmatism and complications of the SRB judgment of […]
Going through the European Data Protection Board’s list of key topics for its stakeholder event on 5 November on AI models (thanks EDPB for confirming my participation!), I hope all attendees will have had the chance to carefully read the following materials (in their entirety): – My in-depth article on the two key topics, i.e. […]
Not a gatekeeper? No matter – the DMA-GDPR Guidelines of the EDPB & European Commission are important: the EDPB’s input aims to ensure consistency in the interpretation of the GDPR. I’ll go through all 55 pages before next week’s great CEDPO panel with the EDPB’s own Gwendal Le Grand, Borja Martínez Corral and our moderator […]
SRB: Do potential cyber attacks matter when assessing whether pseudonymisation is sufficient to make personal data cease to be “personal” from the perspective of a recipient?

Several posters seem to agree with the EDPB’s new ePrivacy Guidelines. “Of course every computer interaction is covered”. I disagree, but let’s imagine they are right. Isn’t it still problematic that *almost nothing is exempt from consent* nowadays in the eyes of most EDPB members? First, the basics. Under Art. 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive […]
So, here’s the comparison between the EDPB’s new ePrivacy Guidelines and the version that was up for public consultation end of 2023. As you can see, not much has changed. The fundamental issues that affected the previous version (competence, overbroad interpretation that doesn’t match the actual meaning of words or the intention of the legislator, […]

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 […]
