4:16 pm
the screen getting 200 people around. more than 300000000 people are sinking because no one should have to make up your own mind. w. made for mines the beginning, you hits meta with a record breaking fine over data transfers to the u. s. meta says it's up to politicians on both sides to solve a problem. that's dog transatlantic relations for a decade. also when our show china flashes flashes, its anger after the latest g 7 meeting and puts us chip or micron on
4:17 pm
a blacklist for major projects in the country. also on our show is a new wind blowing into 5 between communities and wind turbine developers. we look at some new initiatives to give residents a lot of the profits. hello and welcome to the show. i'm seeing beardsley in berlin . and we begin an ireland where regulators have hit meta with a 1200000000 euro fine, the largest such a penalty since the strict data privacy rules inter entered effect 5 years ago. on the data regulator. so the parent company of facebook, whatsapp and instagram continues to run a file of rules governing data transfers to the us. they submit a has 5 months to bring is policies and the line. the company says that it expects the u. s. and e regulators to work out a broader data privacy agreement in the coming months of the fine is the latest chapter and a decade long dispute. going back to revelations, the us intelligence agencies were accessing personal data from facebook as well as
4:18 pm
other social media companies. for more on this, i'm joined by rosie birch are in our brussels bureau, rosie, i'm going to have you on the show, help us understand what's going on here. what exactly are irish data regulator saying with this finding with this penalty as well? not to a stands accused of violating, reaching that your opinions, privacy will that can, it's really all here about questions of protecting european union users of the day . so when that data is transferred to the us and particularly questions around us surveillance activities, but to understand how we got here, we need to rewind because this is part of a lease has twist. in years of legal wrangling, under which part, we've seen privacy activists challenge big tech in court, and i back in 2020. the years taught, court struck don't a previous data sharing framework, a data flow framework between the european union and the united states, which has been known as the privacy shield since then. metal has been rely on
4:19 pm
another mechanism known as stumbled to standard contractual closes in order to keep the data flowing across the atlantic. now we face latest decision from data protection authorities in dublin. and the reason it's happening in our own, just because meta, you headquarters is in our lives. that latest decision says the, the backup method, those standard contractual close, is used to keep the data floyd, all those to that method to is in breach of the real book and is breaching you was . it was a both of you and you say that they're working on a common, a data access regulation for the summer. does that mean essentially this matter is out of met his hands and really it's, it's on a much higher political level right now as well. and best so it has said this latest decision is flawed and on justify. but indeed it really has to wait and see no fault of brussels on washington. come up with because since that decision of the ears talk court in 2020 the, the us has been trying to work out
4:20 pm
a nother and mechanism. another framework which will stand up to legal tests to in order to keep transatlantic faces at it, to a transatlantic day to fully know mehta says that so far there is no disruption to its services in europe. so for example, facebook and instagram, but there are several months in which it can implement this decision. now the european union has said in the last couple of hours and it said that it will be looking to try to secure a new do or to us data transfers with the us before the summer. so within the next few months, but it does mean that this kind of hangs in the balance here. and what we're seeing overall is a tension here, and you're between protecting users data on, of course. and of course, creating a stable environment for tech businesses. rosie bershard in our brussels bureau, helping us understand that new fine against matter. thank you. which one is regulators bound to band some domestic purchases of chips made by us for micron technology. as big gene continue to register its displeasure over the
4:21 pm
outcome of the latest use of a meeting regulator saying us company failed a security review, excuse me, beginning earlier this year. and it badging would now prohibit domestic operators of key industries from doing business with micron. china recently accounted for 11 percent of microns revenue. so much of it in the area of consumer tech at the move allows last week's g 7, excuse me, follows last week's g 7 meeting in japan where countries bound to the risk their economies from china. for more than 4 decades, earlier i asked george madness of the oxford university of oxford university is china center why beijing was so upset by the communicate or statement released by g 7 countries at the end of that meeting take listen. so the communicate refers to a number of things which were clearly pointed at china. so for example, among the many paragraphs that were included with those that involved and an approach just like well known market policies,
4:22 pm
which is basically how they describe china. and that was a non market economy about co version of other countries in terms of trade and commercial policy. they object to or don't like the harmful effects that are quote, some countries adopt with regards to certain sectors like grab the judges digital sector. and there's plenty in there about the requirements for international standards in governance and peace and stability. so they're almost, you know, you can pick any of those. and i think paging probably would have looked at the whole not as a, as a sort of collective. and then sir, do you know that? so linked with us and we didn't like it. we think back to this is not something that to, you know, we, we know that we're in the process and we're done. what about it? it's moved by badging against us to make her my con, is this largely symbolic or does it really carry any have to for the company and ultimately for washington? i think it's probably quite important some micro and i think a, you know,
4:23 pm
certainly a kind of a at least a low double digit proportion of their revenues of sales. as far as i'm aware comes from a business in china and the fact that they've been picked on by we're trying to use government as a kind of a could for a quote. because obviously the chinese government doesn't like their companies being picked on by the us congress or by the, by the, by the white house. so this is, this is part of the tit for tat of the, this engagement, you know, which is taking place. and so microns being, uh, i think that the chinese infrastructure companies and projects have been banned from so, so a single by micro on a chip. so mike, on products, so that projects, this is um, i mean, in a way this is kind of possible cause this is, this is just the way that the united states and chinese governments are kind of behaving to one another. not withstanding the fact that they're trying to establish, i think they're trying to establish more of a dialogue than they had over c before the same is balloon incident. and earlier
4:24 pm
this year, right, we're hearing more and more reports that there could be more dialogue between the 2 sides. and after a lot of those tensions, you just mentioned a pollutants. and of course, i'm going back to micron real quick. and can we imagine a rift, there is other companies to try and rush in potentially including from american allies such as samsung and south korea. they would actually fit that profile pretty well of what micron is doing there. i don't know if that's intentional from china or if that's just something that the dollars will have to deal with. is it realistic as well? it, it certainly creates 2 kinds of incentives, the grades and incentives, the chinese 70 conduct to companies to try to fill the gap. and in fact, the shares of some of that a semi conducted companies did rises in the way to be my current announcement. it also creates an incentive for microns from cartridges to kind of steel bit of a market as well. um, but um i was same time. i mean, the lots of nuances she had at the same time because the united states government,
4:25 pm
the south korean government, the japanese government, um, are, you know, all in negotiations and talks to try to reinforce america's regulations that were introduced last year to prohibits they set out of the sensitive materials, particularly advanced micro chips to, to chinese companies. so yeah, it's a bit of a tussle going on here as to, you know, no doubt, some companies will try to get round the regulations. but ultimately those regulations are not going to be abandoned. all right, that's george magnus at the china center at oxford university. thank you so much, george. thank you. that interview was recorded earlier. you can find the full version on youtube or the dw news channel, with germany has big plans for renewable energy this decade. with wind turbines, in particular, set to play a major role. if they can find social acceptance, especially more world parts of the country,
4:26 pm
we're not all or happy about the giant structures. now, some developers are finding clever ways of winning over residents, including giving them caught up the prophets. the town under wind turbines, there are $37.00 of them in dodge as time. and those who live here see them all the time. like high go to going to his grandson doesn't know any different for his grandfather to. they have long been part of everyday life. we still does up to doesn't bother me at all. we sit outside a lot in the summer and it's no problem. i put it in the mood is completely different. what a 120 kilometers further north, near, eluded at. 44 wind turbines are an operation here, but no one likes them, like tanya schultz who misses her unobstructed view and something else upsets her. the increased electricity prices. she has to order electricity elsewhere, and her provider is now raised the price per kilowatt hour from $22.00 to $0.46.
4:27 pm
and with letters, yes, one becomes naturally angry and they basically double the price per kilowatt hour. and that's, we've got everything on our doorstep and we don't get anything out of it and everything becomes more expensive and we get nothing. now, once these types too bad doesn't focus us auto back in dodge of time. things are obviously very different here. the wind farm has made sure of that. it gives local residents a share of its profit by so residents can benefit from cheap electricity, $0.30 per kilowatt hour. peter sholtes has opted for this. his previous provider raised the electricity price to almost $0.60. if it's the investment, but their relief is because actually many things that increased accept my money that has an increase much the wind farm does even more. the operator voluntarily transfers one percent of the profits to the child's associations. the mayor is also pleased with the income from the business taxed and can offer
4:28 pm
residents even more. the bill was wonderful and our citizens and we've limited this to our own village here and can make it directors capital investment in the wind farm up unless they receive an annual interest of at least 4 percent off. yeah. and when the wind blows it even more fuel puts in, when the vent each bit of mail word has spread, the secretary general of the world wind energy association from bon is visiting dr . time. he knows how important it is to get local residents on board. if the energy turn around is to succeed, you know, to see some people can identify with it. they become part of it. then they are to some extent and also lobbyist on the ground for wind energy. they want to have and that's themselves tom. there is a good chance that there will soon be more supporters of wind power in germany. companies are now legally required to involve local residents for tonya schultz. it's a little too late, and that's it for our show. we can find out more online at w dot com slash business
4:29 pm
. we're also on youtube under the date of new ship watching the new dairy products. no ex, new meet the beacon diet, just trending. some people swear by it. but it's a strictly speaking guy. it necessarily help we off the scientist, the d w, the voice i am must the new jobs. she's the face of
4:30 pm
a protest movement. i did not think so many women would send me the photos. she's there motivator. all of us hire a little must be the and she will give up to watch the assignment for public took my brother hostage a few days ago. the trying to sign in the scene on the job. they won't be silent. starts june, 3rd on the w. we cons exactly say that we treat the people in the world with respect we are constantly exploring science at every opportunity and we try to optimize them through breeding engineers like muddies.
