Has e-Privacy come into effect?

In "Module 13: Sustaining and improving compliance", in the "Keep Looking Forward" video, the lecturer says that:
the e-Privacy regulation is in the drafting stage and will soon set rules for privacy and security in the context of electronic communications.
My question is, has the e-Privacy already come into effect? and where can I find out more information about it?

I assume that you are referring to Advisera's EU GDPR DPO Course, Module 13. E-Privacy regulation is still a proposal to be approved by the European Parliament. The approval procedure is not concluded.

 

And where can I find out more information about it?

 

You can find all information about e-Privacy regulation discussion on the Official European Union websites.

Proposal for a REGULATION OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL concerning the respect for private life and the protection of personal data in electronic communications and repealing Directive 2002/58/EC (Regulation on Privacy and Electronic Communications): https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=CELEX%3A52017PC0010

Here you can find the ongoing approval procedure: https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/HIS/?uri=celex:52017PC0010

On the website of European Data Protection Board (EDPB) you can find the EDPB’s statements on this proposal: https://edpb.europa.eu/our-work-tools/our-documents/statements/statement-32019-eprivacy-regulation_en
