Yes, I have read the leaked GDPR Omnibus. Yes, if unleashed as is, it will be an earthquake for EU data protection law (with 2 or 3 of the deep cuts). Which, ironically, would leave most countries that imported the GDPR with a stronger data protection regime than the GDPR.

Digital Omnibus: When “Simplification” Becomes a Security Risk
Under the banner of “simplification,” the European Commission plans to revise core pieces of digital protection: from data protection to cybersecurity and artificial intelligence. What sounds like cutting red tape could, in reality, erode Europe’s digital safeguards. Instead of clarity and strategic direction, fundamental rights, security, and trust risk being sacrificed to a misguided deregulatory logic.
