Send us a textWhile we generally don't shy away from politics when it comes to data protection and privacy rights, the conflict in Gaza is not a topic that we would quickly raise on the podcast. Unless data protection plays a role, which it now does.On this week of Serious Privacy, Paul Breitbarth, Ralph O’Brien of Reinbo Consulting, and Dr. K Royal enter a dimension not seen before on the podcast - a plea for human rights related to Israel and Gaza. The immediate reason for our discussion are two news reports: the registration requirement for humanitarian aid organisations imposed by the Israeli government, and the mass surveillance of phone communications in the Palestinian territories.We recognise this topic is divise, and may not be to everyone's liking. If that is you, maybe skip this week's episode. Sources:https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/aug/06/microsoft-israeli-military-palestinian-phone-calls-cloudhttps://autoriteitpersoonsgegevens.nl/en/current/ap-aid-organisations-cornered-due-to-israeli-requirement-to-provide-personal-data If you have comments or questions, find us on LinkedIn and Instagram @seriousprivacy, and on BlueSky under @seriousprivacy.eu, @europaulb.seriousprivacy.eu, @heartofprivacy.bsky.app and @igrobrien.seriousprivacy.eu, and email [email protected].
