Dr. Datenschutz is a German Podcast – but special occasions ask for special measures (we wouldn’t switch it up for just anyone). Laura welcomes Anu Talus, the Chair of the European Data Protection Board (EDPB), in this episode. Anu lets Laura in on how her everyday life with two jobs looks like, how EDPB and DPAs work together and what the process for picking specific topics of the EDPB looks like. They talk about general developments, the opportunities of change for the GDPR and what AI brings to the table. Moreover, as Laura loves every learning opportunity she improves her Finnish one word at a time with Anus help.
