I am conscious that Mr. Schrems has a European-wide view on matters. We have seen Germany take efforts to bring enforcement against Google without involving Dublin and, recently, Italy side-stepping Dublin in regard to TikTok. What else is happening in Europe that we should be aware of that will likely further isolate Ireland? I ask Mr. Schrems to give an example of where policies and procedures in a data protection controller are working very well in a European context and what is the main difference between it and us? What are we doing wrong and what can we do better?
