Okay this is a *wild* AI case. A Canadian court forced Air Canada to honor a retroactive bereavement policy that a chat bot *made up* canlii.org/en/bc/bccrt/doc/2…

Generative AI - whether you🥰love it or 😱fear it, we have to regulate it to make sure people are protected if its output harms people. Find out how we recommend regulating ChatGPT, Bard and the like in this final stretch of the #AIAct ➡️beuc.eu/sites/default/files/…

Today the #CJEU has largely declared Meta's approach to #GDPR "compliance" illegal.
Meta is basically reduced to core services and consent for anything that goes beyond that.
VERY good result as the CJEU (as before) simply applied the letter of the law.

The GDPR is essential to advance data protection, privacy, & other consumer & fundamental rights in the digital age. The European Commission should improve its enforcement to guarantee access to justice & the fundamental right to personal data protection. beuc.eu/sites/default/files/…

Our 🇳🇱 member @Consumentenbond is taking action against Google demanding the tech giant stops illegally collecting & processing data from Dutch consumers! They're also asking Google pay compensation to users for its unprecedented privacy violations. 💪💪

A fascinating new study in Science details how LinkedIn ran social experiments on 20 million users over 5 years.
It shows how algorithmic tweaks can become social engineering experiments with potentially life-altering consequences for millions of people.

So it seems that the UK is leaving @EUI_EU. Negotiations have failed. This morning we received an official letter from the UK Government confirming that the current UK-EUI relationship will end as the interim arrangement closes in December 2022. End of an era.

Do the @EU_Commission's flagship proposals for the digital market include the consumer perspective & what are the implications? Read the new report from BEUC's EU Consumer Protection 2.0 project #DSA #DMA #AIA #DGA #digitalasymmetry #digitalvulnerability: beuc.eu/publications/beuc-x-…

The #AIAct is the EU’s attempt to regulate #AI technologies as they burst into the mainstream. As crucial as this legislation is, the proposal doesn’t provide the protection consumers need. Today we release our position on how to achieve that. beuc.eu/publications/beuc-x-… THREAD.

NEW: our case study, described today by @FT @madhumita29, shows that Facebook pushes anxiety-fuelling ads at a young mother worried about her toddler’s health, even after she disabled all health-related interests in ad settings.
