Max Schrems Files GDPR Complaints with French DPA on Cookie Use
European privacy advocacy group None of your business (NOYB)—led by Max Schrems—announced it had filed three formal complaints with the French data protection authority (CNIL) against three French websites for sending digital signals to tracking companies claiming that users had agreed to be tracked online, despite the same users rejecting such cookies.
Despite users going through the trouble of “rejecting” countless cookies on the French eCommerce page CDiscount, the movie guide Allocine.fr and the fashion magazine Vanity Fair, these webpages have sent digital signals to tracking companies claiming that users have agreed to being tracked online.
