OPINION: Looming no-deal Brexit raises questions about cross-border data transfers - Business Insider

Cillian Kieran is the CEO and founder of data privacy company Ethyca.

It's hugely valuable for British businesses to access customers in the EU, but the UK has to prove its post-Brexit data protection is up to snuff.Visit Business Insider's homepage for more storiesA few years ago, it became trendy to describe consumer data as "the new oil" — the fuel that sustains a modern digital economy. That comparison is instructive as the world comes to the end of a seismically disruptive year.

Right now, the European Commission is trying to figure out if Britain's policies for personal data management will be strong enough to ensure adequacy with GDPR. The governing Conservatives have been vocally anti-GDPR for some time — indeed they made the perceived heavy-handedness of the law a talking point for their Brexit campaign. Dominic Cummings, the top adviser to the UK's prime minister, is on record calling GDPR "horrific". His recently released national data strategy, framed as radically "pro-tech", will do little to calm the adequacy concerns of EU privacy regulators.

Shortly thereafter, the Irish Data Protection Commissioner initiated an order that, if upheld, would force Facebook to suspend all data transfers from the European Union back to the US — effectively crippling the company's European operation. It boils down to: "If you want access to our markets, you play by our data rules." Cummings, Boris Johnson, and other Tory luminaries may be about to find this out the hard way.From the summer's Privacy Shield ruling to the present Brexit jockeying to the US's continued escalation of data gamesmanship against China, 2020 is emerging as the year that data nationalism jumped rails from China and Russia to impact the world at large.

Fuck me I thought that was project fear. Brexshitters didn’t listen and their only Brexshit Bonus will be a mass of shit in portaloos through Kent.

who knew? oh, wait, we all did...

No shit Sherlock
