Episode Synopsis

In this episode of InfoSec Insider – Talk DP, Stuart Skelly, Senior Consultant at URM, breaks down the Upper Tribunal’s recent decision to uphold the ICO’s appeal in the Clearview AI case, sharing his insights on the meaning and impact of this development.  Stuart draws upon over 25 years of specialisation in data protection law to discuss:

The Clearview AI case and how it has developed since the ICO’s 2022 decision to impose a £7.5m fine on Clearview
The Upper Tribunal’s ruling and how it has clarified the territorial scope of the GDPR, as well as the limits of the Regulation’s Article 2 exemption for law enforcement
Why the enforcement limitations of the GDPR mean this ruling may not be as significant a win for the ICO as it initially seems
A potential legal challenge to Clearview from well-known data protection activist Max Shrems, potentially signalling hope on the horizon for this case.
