Abstract

This chapter is a transcribed account of Schrems’ experience from a lecture he delivered at City University of London in the Globallaw@City research dialogue series in 2016 in the midst of his ongoing litigation in Austria, Ireland and before the European Court of Justice on his personal litigation and its broader context. The talk is a closely transcribed version of his lecture with minor editing for sense, style and tone. The chapter outlines the evolution of Privacy Shield from the complaint lodged against Facebook and focusses on the enforcement of data protection and privacy laws in Europe.
