These excerpts from the Getty v Stability judgment will be interesting for data protection professionals to look at, not just copyright professionals: – Judge: “Stable Diffusion does not itself store the data on which it was trained” [para. 552 of the judgment] – Expert report: “Rather than storing their training data, diffusion models learn the […]
Just one month to go for comments on the EDPB’s new ePrivacy guidelines, so here’s a reminder of why you *should* respond if your company has digital activities: – The new EDPB guidelines concern the scope of Art. 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive, which was never only about cookies but about the storing of information […]
New Belgian Data Protection Authority decision on video surveillance: don’t do permanent surveillance of employees. Questions remain, but without more background (name of the stores, history of theft within the stores etc.) it’s difficult to assess whether the BDPA was right in its assessment. The decision mentions the fact that cameras were deployed in 6 […]
Does your business use profile-based advertising / personalised advertising, whether as publisher, advertiser or adtech intermediary? You will want to tune in to the free webinar this Friday at noon CET in which I will be discussing key topics regarding the GDPR, DSA and ePrivacy rules and the “consent or pay” debate – as well […]
Don’t know the candidates, the selection criteria, or how the Irish DPC appointment committee was selected. Still I find it a bit unfortunate that a formal complaint is being placed based on a person’s past experience. Nothing in the complaint filed before the European Commission (irrespective of its (in)admissibility) demonstrates any actual conflict of interest. […]

Campaigners and some regulators view “pay or OK” approaches – i.e. “subscription […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
