Users' control over their data: is prior consent the best way to monitor.
summary
Panel argues that one-off prior consent no longer gives real control: regulators cite FTC enforcement (including Google cases) and consumer complaints that forced Microsoft and Apple to change cloud‑storage terms after a Norway study; practical fixes include just‑in‑time notices, layered short notices plus machine‑readable dashboards, a single portal for data brokers and data‑minimization across the data lifecycle. Legal route favors using legitimate‑interest balancing tests, transparency, opt‑outs, withdrawal mechanisms and retention/deletion rules rather than checkbox consent alone.
