Mainly we talk about the UK Data Use and Access Bill (https://bills.parliament.uk/bills/3825) , the third extension of TikTok’s required sale (https://www.npr.org/2025/06/18/nx-s1-5430884/trump-tiktok-ban-third-extension) , Meta deploying ads to Whatsapp (https://www.cnbc.com/2025/06/16/meta-whatsapp-ads.html) , and noyb suing two data protection authorities (https://cybernews.com/security/noyb-german-privacy-court-delays-pay-or-okay-ad-cases/) over delayed investigation and enforcement. Lastly, big shoutout to Alexander White in his new appointment as Queensland’s new privacy commissioner (https://www.oic.qld.gov.au/about/news/queenslands-new-privacy-commissioner-announced) .
