Abstract
The talk will tackle the legal and technical aspects of digital sovereignty within EU member states. Human Rights activist, engineer and lawyer Christof Tschohl will provide an overview of new relevant EU regulations and directives, regarding cyber resilience (DORA, NIS2, CRA, CSA), artificial intelligence (AI Act) data protection (GDPR) including an outlook for the pending procedure at the European Court of Justice (ECJ) in the case “Schrems III”. The talk shall open the discussion to what extend EU law is producing pressure on the member states and the EU itself to establish scalable digital (cloud) services under complete European control.
