Potential judicial reforms in Israel could impact adequacy

Judicial reforms in Israel are raising concerns in the EU and could impact data flows between the two, CTech reports. Head of the International Department at Norway's data protection authority, Datatilsynet, Tobias Judin said the impending reforms might lead the EU to reconsider Israel's adequacy status. "That means that suddenly you can't transfer data freely from Europe to Israel anymore, and probably European companies would avoid Israeli companies as well … They would be in the same category as China," he said.
