Response from the President of the European Commission. It would have been good if the President had provided links or citation to the evidence supporting the claims. www.iccl.ie/wp-content/uploads/2026…

Quoted in BBC today. Microsoft redeploys recall. Still a privacy nightmare. Microsoft is relying on "one opt-in to rule them all" approach 1. Once you opt-in to Recall, you have to opt-out of specific apps to prevent Microsoft from capturing sensitive […] [Original post on eupolicy.social]

I wonder if this is a typo in the #EU #AI Act in Annex VIII Section C paragraph 5. eur-lex.europa.eu/eli/reg/2024/1689… Article 26(8) does not mention data protection impact assessment. Article 26 (9) does.
