Making sense of the right to data portability
summary
Panel examines GDPR’s right to data portability as a narrow, contested rule: it applies only to data processed by automated means, limited to data the subject provided, excludes public‑sector processing, and requires a structured, commonly used, machine readable format (recital mentions interoperable but text does not). Standards power for the Commission is removed, transfers controller‑to‑controller work without hindrance only if technically feasible, enforcement sits ambiguously between DPAs and competition authorities, and practical problems appear in wearables, insurer coercion, and portability of platform reputations.
