Google faces EU curbs on how it tracks users to drive adverts
The new rules would compel websites and browsers, such as Google Chrome, to switch from a default of allowing users to opt out of online advertising to asking them to opt in to view adverts based on their browsing history, according to a leaked draft of new proposals from the European Commission.
The EU’s executive arm will also tighten its regulatory grip over services such as WhatsApp and Skype as part of a sweeping overhaul of the bloc’s “ePrivacy” directive, which dictates everything from online tracking to marketing emails.
