This special edition of The Privacy Advisor Podcast celebrates its 50th episode. In it, return guests Max Schrems, Jay Edelson and Sam Pfeifle discuss what they've been up to of late. Schrems, an Austria-based attorney most known for taking down Safe Harbor, says the reason he's been able to stay energized throughout his court cases (he's now involved in a case that could bring down Standard Contractual Clauses) is that he's never been emotionally invested. These days, he's looking to leave the courtroom behind and do something totally different. Edelson recently opened a new office in San Francisco to better focus on Silicon Valley, establish a presence in the courts there, and also to attract tech talent. He'll also explain why his firm recently hired a ... polar bear? And Pfeifle has been head-down working to bring privacy pros content that's relevant, and planning his next tattoo.
