    Grumpy Old Year

    Happy Data Protection Day! 🥳 The grumpsters met up to ponder last year and what lies ahead. Spoiler alert: 🧩 Is EDPB’s dense techspeak an impossible puzzle even for Rie, and public consultations just an internal checkbox exercise? And will 2025 finally bring some clarity, or are we doomed to rearrange the pieces of the same broken puzzle? 🔗 Go to shownotes

    Have you noticed?

    🌡️ Today, the grumpy-meter is through the roof! But not due to the GDPR, EDPB, Meta, noyb or CJEU... 🇺🇸 To ask for consent, or not to ask, that is the question! A very practical case today where we talk through Rie changing her free newsletter provider due to hefty annoyances. 🔗 Go to shownotes
