Amazing #DPC22 event by @PrivacyPros in Brussels. Happy to have had the chance to be on a panel speaking about the binary construction which is the controller/processor and it upholding an imbalance of power in the context of cloud computing services. pic.twitter.com/GHRDwgceZf

@BirkedalMette reminds us that #privacy is not a term that dropped from the sky but a part of cultures and religions across centuries. Its history can guide how we approach it across today’s geographic and cultural divides. #DPC22 pic.twitter.com/mdePu3vWUA

Great session on #AIAct at #DPC22 organised by @PrivacyPros. Agree with @albertodifelice, completely new regulatory approach that makes highly uncertain if it will work in the end (“shoot in the dark”)! A lot depends on clear standards/guidance but those will not be ready in time pic.twitter.com/nD6fFp72Sp
