A discussion on the future of transatlantic data flows.
Event Overview
A record fine and “stop transferring” order from Ireland’s Data Protection Commission leaves a cloud of uncertainty hanging over the future of transatlantic data flows. The EU and the US have yet to cement an agreement that can avert a crisis. What obstacles remain for the EU-US Data Privacy Framework? Will the US satisfy Europe’s concerns about digital surveillance? How will this case change the future of cross-border data transfers?
