Ranking: Who in the EU Parliament fights for your privacy – and who for Big Tech?!

noyb (None of Your Business) · · EU · GDPR & International

Privacy advocacy group noyb reviewed more than 1,000 amendments proposed by Members of the European Parliament on the GDPR and ePrivacy Directive, as part of an effort to track where individual MEPs stand on proposed changes to EU privacy law under the so-called Digital Omnibus package.

Why this matters: European privacy law is being rewritten, and most people have no idea who is pushing for what. Noyb's scorecard makes that visible. Some MEPs want to roll back rights that took years to build. Others are holding the line. If the Digital Omnibus goes through in a form that weakens the GDPR, the effects reach every person whose data flows through an EU-based service. Knowing which elected officials are doing the stripping is the minimum information voters and advocates need to do anything about it.
