Listen "Does GDPR need to be reformed? ft. Paula Gürtler"

Episode Synopsis

 The EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) was designed to protect privacy and personal data, but its enforcement has been rather lacking across Member States. Some argue that it no longer fully delivers on its original ambitions whereas others denounce it unnecessarily burdens SMEs with regulation.   Our host, Tom Parker, is joined by Paula Gurtler, Associate Researcher in the Global Governance, Regulation, Innovation and Digital Economy (GRID) unit at CEPS. Her work focuses on Applied Ethics and in particular the ethics of new technology. Together, they talk potential reforms, the need for agility in data regulation, and how GDPR interacts with newer legislative frameworks such as the Data Act.  For more information on Paula Reiners and the work of CEPS, visit this link. Watch this episode here Hosted on Acast.
