In the recent EUCO Debrief TEPSA - Trans European Policy Studies Association, you can find my (very, very) critical comment on the #DigitalOmnibus Proposal.

I argue that the initiative undermines the fundamental values of the EU without enhancing the competitiveness of European operators. 🧵

confirmed that it is not a joke pl.usembassy.gov/visas/

The US Embassy in Warsaw just issued this announcement - every person who wants to be considered for a visa (esp. F, M and J) needs to change their settings to public on all their social media accounts.

YES, THIS IS COMING FROM THEIR OFFICIAL SOCIAL MEDIA ACCOUNTS

I would love this to be a joke.

I wrote about a new book by Sylwia Czubkowska about Big Tech, Brussels bubble, lobbying in politics and academia, that covers faces and stories that many of you are more than familiar with.

For now, available only in Polish, but I hope one day you will be able to read this in English.

And this one! Very nicely written takedowns of various Silicon Valley para-philosophical ideas, starting with the longtermists

We had so much fun on the Computers, Privacy and Data Protection book club/workshop session, and such a great turnout for talking about literature in the morning!

Join us for the creative literary session next Thursday morning at the #CPDP!

We will discuss the books that were supposed to be a warning but ended up being an instruction, and we will try to figure out the ways to design alternative stories and policies. 💫

if you are curious what this ominous 'monk and robot' event at the CPDP is, stay tuned for more 📚

Hope you didn’t miss that: we have time until the end of May to object to data processing for AI training by Meta

I'm back in Italy this month for a self-imposed writing retreat to wrap up all the loose ends. While I'll be mainly in Lucca and shut away from any distractions, I plan to visit the EUI occasionally.

Let me know if you are around to catch up ☕

I'm enjoying coordinating and teaching this course *a lot*.

In session 2, we are criticising the Brussels effect & digital empires, discussing problems with #gdpr extraterritorial enforcement and trying to make sense of 167 data protection regulations.

I'm starting to teach my first self-coordinated course at the ECPC today!

We will cover many interesting topics: collective data protection, overlaps with competition and consumer law, vulnerability, law enforcement, data protection and the rule of law and more - can't wait!

Happy #DataProtectionDay!

I have a big FOMO for not being able to come to Brussels for the CPDP Day, so instead I'm sharing this Sołżenicyn quote that, to me, captures perfectly the essence of data protection -

got the best birthday gift ever from my best friend - a tshirt with the books that were important for me at some point in my life

Yes #gdpr is also included
