The Standard Contract is Not Enough - DTNS 4525

Season 10, Ep. 4525

The EU fines Meta a record €1.2B for sending European user data to the US in violation of GDPR. What now for Meta? The Cyberspace Administration of China has warned critical infrastructure operators against buying components from the memory chip maker Micron, citing “relatively serious” cybersecurity risks in its products. And Instagram is planning on releasing a text-based Twitter competitor, codenamed P92 or Barcelona that could arrive as early as June as a separate app.
