Mr. Max Schrems:

There are benefits from independence, but there are also benefits from getting more knowledge on a decision-making level, which seems to be lacking right now. Quite honestly, if I ran my NGO the way that the DPC is run then I would probably be fired by my board but the DPC is independent so that is not an option. An option would be to add more people and that would act as a counterbalance, which, from my perspective, is the more important part. There are benefits, like these independence issues, that come with the addition of more management personnel.
