Max Schrems
Maximilian Schrems (usually referred to as Max Schrems) is an Austrian privacy activist who campaigns against Facebook for privacy violation, including its violations of European privacy laws and alleged transfer of personal data to the US National Security Agency (NSA) as part of the NSA's PRISM programme. He has founded a group called ''Europe v Facebook'' and has initiated two lawsuits involving Facebook.
== Background and past actions ==
While studying law during a semester abroad at Santa Clara University in Silicon Valley, Schrems decided to write his term paper on Facebook's lack of awareness of European privacy law, after being surprised by what the company's privacy lawyer, Ed Palmieri, said to his class on the subject. He later made a request under the European "right to access" provision for the company's records on him and received a CD containing over 1,200 pages of data, which he published at Europe v Facebook with personal information redacted. He filed numerous complaints about the company, and in February 2012 Richard Allan and another company executive flew to Vienna for a meeting with him that lasted six hours.〔 According to Schrems, Facebook was audited under European law and had to delete some files and disable its facial recognition software.
In his 2015 book ''Data and Goliath'', American security expert Bruce Schneier cited the experience Schrems had to make the point that in the digital age, consumers are increasingly being surveilled by corporations in exchange for free communications services.
