Under the European General Data Protection Regulation, anonymisation of personal data may not only provide a legal loophole for controllers to escape their regulatory burden. Considering specific circumstances, it can even be a legal duty for controllers to anonymise their personal data. Differential privacy has been proposed as a new approach to the problem of anonymisation. This article aims to assess the appropriateness of this approach with regards to the legal problem of anonymisation.
