Der Aktivist Max Schrems klagt in einem offenen Brief an die EU-Datenschutzbehörden über die Arbeit der irischen Datenschutzaufsicht. Diese sei im dritten Jahr der DSGVO ein Nadelöhr für den Datenschutz in Europa.

Privacy activist Max Schrems called on the European authorities to push the Irish regulator to speed up its handling of cases he has brought against Facebook on the second anniversary of the introduction of rules designed to help protect the data of consumers. Schrems, long a thorn in the side of Facebook, bemoaned the lack of progress since the introduction of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) regime across Europe in 2018.

Max Schrems’s group Noyb in an open letter on Monday called on European Union authorities to “take action” against the Irish Data Protection Commission, which has yet to issue any significant fines exactly two years after strict EU rules empowered the regulator to levy hefty penalties for serious privacy violations.

Ireland's privacy regulator took "highly disturbing" actions in the course of an investigation into possible legal breaches by Facebook and has generally fallen short enforcing Europe's privacy rules, Austrian activist Max Schrems argued in an open letter Monday.
