Bulk data interception/retention judgments of the CJEU – A victory and a defeat for privacy, by Juraj Sajfert

[Blogpost] On 26 October 2020, LSTS researcher Juraj Sajfert published his new blogpost  'Bulk data interception/retention judgments of the CJEU – A victory and a defeat for privacy'.

The blogpost explores the recent judgments by the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) in Case C-623/17, Privacy International, and in Joined Cases C-511/18, La Quadrature du Net and Others, C-512/18, French Data Network and Others, and C-520/18, Ordre des barreaux francophones et germanophone and Others (referred to as La Quadrature du Net and Others). 

Juraj presents the facts of the cases and divides the main outcomes of the two judgments in 'three victories', either for the law enforcement or the privacy communities.

The blogpost is hosted on the European Law Blog.
