I’ve blogged about some of the challenges posed by upcoming UK-US digital trade negotiations, particularly for the Online Safety Act privacyx.substack.com/p/uk-digital...
UK digital regulation - what impact could trade negotiations with the US have?

A quick plug for my Substack rounding up the latest developments this year on legitimate interests. The DP community will need to step up its approach to LIAs in 2025 privacyx.substack.com/p/keeping-it...

For those of you who’d like to digest this in podcast form, I’ve experimented with a Notebook LLM version (usual caveats apply about accuracy for an AI driven version of the blog).

❓Request- Has one seen a website that links to all the recently released DSA risk assessment and audit reports for the 19 VLOPs and VSOEs? Searching hasn’t located one and I can’t see on the EC website. I have quite a few links but not all. Otherwise I will blog my list. Cheers, S
