Mish Mash, a Privacy Splash
On this week of Serious Privacy, Paul Breitbarth of Catawiki and Dr. K Royal cover a privacy mishmash - starting with the shot heard ‘round the world (assassination attempt on Donald Trump), followed by morality expectations of some professionals (like teachers, at least one teacher was fired for comments on the attempt), the FTC’s actions against Calmara, #HeHealth’s controversial app (and kudos to the team who had to go through all those pics and videos) and NGL Labs, a viral #TikTok doctor who lost her license, SHIELD Act, and an FCC settlement against CaptionCall. We also covered the Turkish KVKK’s long awaited guidance on international data transfers, UK priorities as stated in the King’s Speech, a Dutch enforcement against Kruidvat.nl for €600,000s for online tracking, and a little about the Olympics. #livelearnlaugh
