The Irish High Court granted leave for a judicial review filed by privacy group noyb against the Irish Data Protection Commission (DPC) to compel a decision on Facebook's EU‑US data transfers. The action seeks to enforce the European Court of Justice decision that invalidated the Safe Harbor and Privacy Shield frameworks. A hearing is expected to be scheduled by the end of the year.
Why it matters: The court decision could force the Irish regulator to resolve Facebook’s transatlantic data transfers, impacting compliance with EU data‑protection law.
