Google faces significant internal changes as its Chief Privacy Officer, Keith Enright, departs after 13 years, and the role will not be replaced, according to Forbes. This comes amid a restructuring of Google's privacy and legal compliance teams. Additionally, Matthew Bye, Google's head of competition law, is also leaving after 15 years. These executive departures occur during a turbulent period for Google, as the company is embroiled in a landmark antitrust lawsuit with the Department of Justice (DOJ). The DOJ has rejected Google's attempt to avoid a jury trial by offering a settlement, insisting that the case be heard by a jury.
The retiring of the chief privacy role is obviously eyecatching. But @richardjnieva notes in the story here, the departure of Google's antitrust lead comes in the middle of a landmark competition trial with the DOJ over search. Rich covered that here: https://t.co/KUJIeZ5QPu https://t.co/sHvFsCbymH
