Suddenly a Facebook lobbyist:
Ireland’s former top data protection official switches sides
For years, Helen Dixon faced criticism for being too lenient towards tech companies in her role as Ireland’s Data Protection Commissioner. She now works for a law firm that has represented Meta in legal proceedings against her former agency.
