Abstract

Recent case-law of the European Court of Justice has substantially widened the notion of “data controller" in unclear and potentially onerous ways for a range of actors involved in personal data processing. While this approach may be positive for data protection compliance generally (generating a ‘ripple effect’, in the words of late Advocate General Bot), it also has worrying implications for data subjects who may be characterised as controllers, and for emergent decentralised and privacy protective technologies; we hope the Court will address these issues in its forthcoming judgment in Case C‑40/17, Fashion ID.
