Newsroom: Summer 2025
Description
It is time for a seasonal update at the intersection of Marketing, Data, Privacy and Technology. We will stick to our usual five blocks: ePrivacy & regulatory updates; MarTech & AdTech; AI, Competition and Digital Markets; PETs and Zero-Party Data; Future of Media.
This includes:
* CJEU decisions on Latombe (EU-US data transfers have survived, for now) and SRB (relative nature of personal data)
* UK legal updates and ICO consultations on ePrivacy-related topics
* Record public fines and enforcement actions in California
* Ongoing explosion of pixel and cookie-related lawsuits across the US
* Important fines in the EU, with CNIL’s unwavering passion for large-scale ePrivacy enforcement
* Agentic AI milestones for AdTech and customer centricity/empowerment
* Key initiatives to protect copyright holders from large AI labs (together with Anthropic’s settlement)
All references and links can be found in a separate blog post available to Masters of Privacy Connect subscribers on our website’s Newsroom section.
