"Cookie Consent Kicked To The Curb" is the title of IDFree.com Insider #12
As mentioned here, the EU has recently ruled that the IAB Transparency & Consent Framework (TCF) is in violation of GDPR. This is indeed significant because the IAB TCF is "the industry-standard approach" to collect and store cookie consent for tracking personal data in online advertising.
ICCL sums up the meaning:
“EU data protection authorities find that the consent popups that plagued Europeans for years are illegal. All data collected through them must be deleted.”
Last Round Of Cookie-Based Targeting?
Our CDO Ulrik Larsen, says in a comment to the TCF ruling:
"This is a serious, potentially lethal, blow to cookie-based targeting that relies on user consent. We understood long ago that data privacy is essential in our digital world, and we developedIDFree.com to help marketers run successfully targeted campaigns without relying on private data or user consent."
