In this episode, Phil Lee returns! Phil is a self-proclaimed tech nerd, but that comes in handy, given the uptick in questions on deploying AI without breaching privacy rules or consumer expectations. He says to understand the tech, you've got to play with the tech, which he's happy to do. More importantly, he says: To understand the potential harms of any deployment, you've got to get representatives from the potentially impacted parties in the room with you. Plus, the future of cookies. Are th...

Everywhere you turn it's AI AI AI. But that's for good reason: We're deploying it now at our organizations without a full understanding of the risks we're undertaking.

In this episode, let's talk about what Biden's recent executive order on AI signals you should start doing at your organization to protect it -- and you -- from the pitfalls around privacy.

Welp, the Irish DPC fined Meta $1.3 billion, the highest ever GDPR fine, and it ordered Meta to stop transferring data from the EU to the U.S. The implication, obviously, is that every other company using SCCs to transfer data is also in breach of the GDPR. But the problem is at the political level! We can't solve this organizationally. So, what’s a company to even do? Eduardo Ustaran talks you off the ledge.
Everyone's losing it over this Washington State privacy law. The impetus for the bill was to cover gaps in HIPAA, and the Dobbs v. Jackson decision lit a fire in regulators, putting health-data privacy protections on a fast-track that never slowed. Mike Hintze, co-founder of Hintze Law, says this one “goes well beyond what any other privacy law has done.” Here's what he means.

Jay Edelson has been using Illinois’ Biometric Privacy Act to take companies like Facebook and Clearview AI to task for alleged misuse. And he’s had great success. Without a federal law on biometrics in the U.S., states have started introducing their own versions of BIPA in rapid succession. In fact, 17 U.S. states have introduced a biometric privacy law this year already. In this episode, Edelson discusses his recent wins and his forecast for the BIPA landscape in the future.
The future of personalized ads felt wildly uncertain when the Irish DPC's final decision on the Meta case came down. The decision sent Privacy Twitter into a frenzy over the implications: You can't bundle personalized ads into the contract for the service itself, the DPC said. At the same time, the EU and U.S. are still trying to shake hands on a new data-transfer agreement. Luckily, Phil Lee is a master of both topics, and he's here to talk you off the ledge.

In this episode, Prof. David Carroll discusses his accidental fame as a focus in the Netflix documentary The Great Hack, which followed Carroll's lawsuit against Cambridge Analytica — before its fall — to retrieve his data from the data broker. As we know now, the lawsuit revealed more than Carroll's data and would lead to years of Facebook litigation, lawsuits and settlements.
Last week, Eric Goldman visited the podcast to rip California’s Age-Appropriate Design Code to shreds. Some of you did not like that. On today’s episode, Stanford University’s Dr. Jen King has a different take. “We’ve had nearly thirty years of design masquerading as being values-agnostic driving the development of the internet. Do we really want to defend this status quo?”

You’ve got codes of conduct in the U.K. and California, plus two federal bills headed for U.S. Senate votes that would update COPPA and regulate "addictive" services geared toward kids. The Future of Privacy Forum’s Lauren Merk, U.S. youth and education policy counsel, lives and breathes this stuff, here's what you should know.

In this podcast, Angelique Carson talks to Asana’s Sherry Truong, VF Corporation’s Ryan Torrey, and Cleo Li about what hiring managers are missing, and what job candidates can do to optimize their chances for success in privacy....

June 24 changed our lives. The Supreme Court’s “Dobb’s decision” overturned Roe v. Wade, stating women no longer have the right to make decisions about their own bodies. In this episode, Twilio’s Hannah Poteat, Quora’s Lena Ghamrawi , and Asana’s Whitney Merrill discuss what this means for women and what we, as privacy professionals, can and should do to stop the erosion of human rights in the U.S.
