Returning guest Anna Johnston, founder and Principal of Salinger Privacy, is joined by Ryan Black, Head of Policy for the Tech Council of Australia, and Kate Bower, a fellow at the UTS Human Technology Institute, currently on sabbatical from CHOICE as Consumer Data Advocate.
The panel discuss:

- the future of the small business and political exemptions
- legitimate business interests, fair and reasonable use tests, and best interest duties
- interoperability with international privacy frameworks
- privacy and artificial intelligence
- the urgency of reform
- what happens next
