Interview with John Edwards
summary
Privacy matters because it underpins trust in the digital economy and regulators see tension between protection and growth, with GDPR framed as inhibiting growth and laws originally conceived 40 years ago being stretched by new tech. Main challenge is delivering meaningful choices by reversing design trends that strip control. Priority work focuses on three areas: children's digital privacy, AI and biometrics, and advertising technology and tracking, with international and cross‑sector cooperation emphasized.
