NOYB
NOYB published a document explaining the rise of pay or consent systems across Europe. It says that the approach that was first offered by press websites to replace a loss of advertising now has an increasing number of commercial supporters. Among those supporters are behemoths like Meta who introduced it after losing a court case at the Court of Justice (CJEU).
It highlights a forthcoming binding opinion from the European Data Protection Board (EDPB) that will either outlaw or legitimise the approach.
