> DPC and Meta cooperated on "bypass". During the course of the procedure, Meta has relied on ten confidential meetings with the Irish DPC in which the DPC has allegedly allowed Meta to use this "bypass". It was later revealed that the DPC has even tried to influence relevant EDPB Guidelines in the interest of Meta. Nonetheless, the other European DPAs rejected the DPC's view back in 2018 and again in the final EDPB decision. The case took more than 4.5 years and lead to hundreds of pages of reports and submissions, despite the case being about a rather simple legal question.
I really wish this ends up as an investigation to potential bribery of Meta and DPC. What should follow then is criminal proceedings.
The sheer cost of public administration due to DPC delay is extortionate.
