The Court Speaks, But Who Listens? Automated Compliance Review of the GDPR – Prof. Amit Zac (University of Amsterdam)

This podcast episode explores Professor Amit Zak's research on the automated compliance review of the GDPR in the context of international transfers of personal information. The research combines legal and technical analysis to investigate the effectiveness of the GDPR and the challenges of enforcing compliance. The findings reveal that a significant number of mobile apps in the Google App Store in Spain did not respond well to the Schrems II decision, with high rates of non-compliance even months and years after the decision. The research also highlights the need for more effective enforcement of privacy laws and emphasizes the rewards and challenges of interdisciplinary collaboration between law and computer science.
