This week, Max Schrems, an Austrian lawyer and activist who launched the not-for-profit organisation NYOB, standing for None-of-Your-Business, joins Euractiv Tech brief podcast to talk about the European Union – United States Data Privacy Framework, the new transatlantic agreement allowing EU data to be transferred to the US.
Schrems has been known for filing multiple lawsuits which bear his name. The cases Schrems I and Schrems II are well known for anyone working in the sphere of data privacy or in the implementation of the EU General Protection of Data Regulation (GDPR) because they put an end to previous transatlantic data deals: the Safe Harbord in 2015 and the Privacy Schield in 2020.
This week, Schrems talks with us about the new complaint the activist decided to file in front of the Court of Justice of the EU regarding the Data Privacy Framework: from his motivations that led to the initiative, to his views on the Commission and his point of view regarding the need to “internationalise data protection”.
