Under the GDPR, the EU’s recent decision against Facebook has caused Facebook to threaten termination of their services to the EU because:

  • Facebook alleges that the DPC is not impartial and operates with extreme bias; and

  • Facebook believes that the three-week deadline handed down by the DPC is unfair, unreasonable, and impossible to meet.
