The EU's General Court upholds the Europe-US data transfer pact.

The court dismissed a challenge by centrist French lawmaker Philippe Latombe, who argued that the EU-US deal did not fully respect the EU's data protection rules.

The EU-US Data Privacy Framework is the bloc's third attempt at a framework to protect European personal data in exchanges with the US – the first two were shot down in court.

Will the agreement on data transfers to the USA be overturned?

After Donald Trump dismissed members of the data protection supervisory authority PCLOB, data protection NGO noyb is once again sawing away at the EU-US data protection agreement.

A question that just popped to my mind, reasonable input/debate welcome around it: "Let"s encrypt is a US based non profit organization, submitted to the "US Cloud Act", how could the EU laws (GDPR) be respected by EU or swiss companies (Proton, others) using "Let's encrypt" to secure the communication privacy, given it can lead way to massive TLS communication hijacks via emissions of website certs for CDN appearing to be the website that client (apps, web browser) communicates with using anonymous TLS.? Even more in this kind of context: https://noyb.eu/en/us-cloud-soon-illegal-trump-punches-first-hole-eu-us-data-deal Any idea anyone? Where am I wrong in this line of thoughts? Why don't they use the EU approved eIDAS qualified certificate authorities (https://eidas.ec.europa.eu/efda/trust-services/browse/eidas/tls) that ensure that the EU laws and GDPR are respected by the CAs? At least EU govs would have a little more control on what could happen to limit interferences? Why are browsers like mozilla not talking about this? I start to wonder if some blocks that did cut the ties with current Internet PKI & DNS infrastructrue to ensure that their people laws are respected by the technical infrastructure are not completely wrong to do so, given the US not going to a free people country direction anymore.

PS: Features like MS recall or CSAM are even more frightening from a personal freedom and corporate security perspective, since they use neural nets to sort the screenshots on laptop and label them for easier retrieval...

Surveillance capitalism just got a kicking. In an ultimatum, the European Union has demanded that Meta reform its approach to personalised advertising—a ruling that could have profound consequences for a company that has grown rich by running ads.

The ruling, with a €390 million fine attached, is targeted specifically at Facebook and Instagram, but a huge blow to Big Tech as a whole.

Contre toute attente, voici une récente décision de l'agence Espagnole de protection des données (AEPD) qui va à contre courant de ses homologues Autrichienne, Française, Italienne, Néerlandaise et Danoise. Food for thoughts.
