noyb has filed an appeal with the Stockholm Administrative Court seeking to stop the Swedish Tax Authority from selling personal data to data brokers. The appeal follows a Swedish Supreme Court ruling that data likely to be processed in breach of the GDPR must be marked confidential. The tax authority had previously rejected a data subject’s request to halt the sales.
Why it matters: The case could enforce GDPR rights against a government agency that is commercially distributing citizens' personal data.
