The wheels of privacy enforcement are slowly turning against Facebook in Europe — where its lead data protection regulator, Ireland’s Data Protection Commission (DPC), has taken a key procedural step on a data transfers complaint whose substance dates back almost a decade at this point.

The DPC confirmed today that a draft decision on the legality of Meta’s EU-US data transfers has been sent to other data protection agencies to review. Deputy commissioner, Graham Doyle, declined to provide any details about the decision itself — confirming only that it has been sent.
