Antonios Bouchagiar

Member of the Legal Service of the European Commission

The paper briefly presents the European Commission’s Legal Service and the book on 70 Years of EU Law: A Union for its Citizens, which the Legal Service published to celebrate 70 years of EU law. Inspired from the fifth chapter of the book, the present paper also discusses how EU law regulates data protection in a rapidly changing technological environment. It concludes with some final thoughts on recent cases that could be seen as precursors to the regulation of artificial intelligence.
