If you want to get into the proper #FOSDEM mood have a look at this before you try to get in any virtual room. 😃
Now also EDPS is saying loud and clear that #privacy friendly alternatives to the usual social are available.
I'm wondering if the EDPB shouldn't intervene with an official communication against #Microsoft as they are once again misleading the public, first with their invalid SCCs and now by stating they comply and exceed EDPB's recommendations.
There is absolutely nothing in their blog and attached document that resembles any of the additional measures required to comply with EDPB's recommendations but it seems like it doesn't really matter to them.

Reading C-311/18 #SchremsII/#PrivacyShield,
EU Commission #SCC (2010/87/EU) art. 4a and EU EDPB FAQs point 5 I can only infer that it's unethical and illegal for US #Cloud providers to state they can transfer and process personal data even when they claim tha data stays in EU (which it doesn't).
Change my mind.
