Highlights include: the increase in ransomware cyber-attacks; the CJEU's
opinion that can impact the future of Uber and the sharing economy; the
FCC's proposal that could roll back net neutrality rules in the USA; the
growing number of bilateral settlements of tax disputes involving
technology companies; and the sanctions imposed on Facebook by data
protection authorities in Europe. *Turn to pages 1, 3, 4-5*

*Is cybersecurity counter-intuitive?*

significantly low, despite the scale of the attack. *Turn to page 6*

*Are you GDPR-ready?*

effect a year from now, we invite you to test your knowledge with our
