The Europeans are coming! Hi everyone, welcome to Tech Policy Grind, a show by and about young professionals in the tech law and policy space – today we’re joined by Bijan Madhani – fellow foundry member at the Internet Law and Policy Foundry, Senior policy counsel at CCIA – the Computer & Communications Industry Association – to talk about the General Data Protection Regulations – the new set of sweeping and far-reaching privacy regulations coming online in Europe this week, on May 25th. Should small businesses be concerned? Is the GDPR really Thanos – and if so, does that make the right to be forgotten the Time Stone? We cover these crucial issues and more – right here on Tech Policy Grind
