Final decision on Meta's EU-US data transfers delayed

Objections to the Irish Data Protection Commission's order to halt Meta's EU-U.S. data transfers will delay a final decision, Politico reports. A DPC spokesperson said fellow data protection authorities raised concerns during the mandated four-week consultation under Article 60 of the EU General Data Protection Regulation and it may take months to resolve the discrepancies. If issues go unresolved, the Article 65 dispute resolution mechanism will be triggered. Editor's note: The IAPP's Jedidiah Bracy, CIPP, reported on the DPC's draft order against Meta.
