Ars Boni 374 Does European Privacy Law need a Fix? (Prof. Dr. Solove)
Five years after coming into force, GDPR is planned to be "fixed" by the European Commission before summer 2023 (see https://www.politico.eu/article/brussels-plans-new-privacy-enforcement-law-by-summer/ for further details). Different from one might expect, the initiative doesn't question any GDPR fundamentals, but rather seems to have a rather limited scope: It will deal with discrepancies in enforcement by different European Data Protection authorities.only (see https://ec.europa.eu/info/law/better-regulation/have-your-say/initiatives/13745-Further-specifying-procedural-rules-relating-to-the-enforcement-of-the-General-Data-Protection-Regulation_en). The picture whether GDPR is working might look very different from the outside, where some of GDPR's "eternal" fundamentals such as the concept of informed consent or of sensitive data are discussed. We talk with Daniel Daniel J. Solove. He is Eugene L. and Barbara A. Bernard Professor of Intellectual Property and Technology Law at the George Washington University Law School and founder of TeachPrivacy, a company that provides privacy and data security training programs to businesses, schools, healthcare institutions, and other organizations. We will discuss two recent papers on informed consent and the distinction between sensitive and "normal" personal data.

Ars Boni 371 Platform Liability and the US Supreme Court (Katerina Polychronopoulos)
On February 21 2023 the US Supreme Court will hold oral hearings in two cases that might fundamentally change internet governance in the US and worldwide: Gonzalez v. Google LLC and Twitter, Inc. v. Taamneh challenge the principle that platforms are not liable for users' content provided they have no actual knowledge of it. The Cases might lead to a fundamental reinterpretation of Section 230 of Title 47 of United States Code which currently reads as follows: ""No provider or user of an interactive computer service shall be treated as the publisher or speaker of any information provided by another information content provider." (47 U.S.C. § 230(c)(1)).
We speak with Katerina Polychronopoulos. Katerina is a lawyer who received her Juris Doctorate in 2012 from the University of Illinois and has been working at the Department of Innovation and Digitalisation in Law since 2019.

#arsboni #traveldiaries 35: Vienna (Visit from Brno)
***
This is an experiment.
In the #arsboni #traveldiaries I have been reporting on trips I make and/or on presentations I give. Image (and slides) are important there, obviously, which is the reason why I have put them on a YouTube channel only (so far), https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLNsQQZ-Ar_saqEdEqyjIJ2Gv9CQatTHBi. It might, however, be that some of you still want to listen to this as a Podcast, Audio only. This audio copy is for this group of people. Kindly let me know whether this is of any use and whether I can make anything better here (and sorry for the two beeps in here, I didn't want to cut/record everything again, so I was lazy, my apologies).
***
This is a condensed version of a presentation I gave at home, at our department in Vienna, for faculty and students from Masaryk University Brno who were visiting us for a joint seminar on IP on January 31 2023.
