Microsoft’s and EPO’s Cover-up
Creative Commons Attribution-No Derivative Works 4.0
AS we've just noted, the EPO's privacy abuses and subsequent cover-up aren't ending. As far as we can tell, quietly just before Christmas the EPO took it up another notch, knowing that there are ongoing complaints and legal challenges -- ones that EPO management does not want stakeholders to even know about. To Microsoft the stakes are high too; it has been violating the GDPR for quite some time now, so an above-the-law EPO is somewhat of a loophole -- a legal trick by which Microsoft can pretend that it's totally acceptable for EU agencies to outsource their operations to notorious Pentagon contractors. ⬆
