Ad companies are very good at getting around the legal issue of consent. Just visit any online news site from a European IP address to see the nonsense they pull to get around GDPR. They just keep harassing you with pop-ups until you click the big green button labeled "Got it, thanks". Knowing that, I predict JCDecaux will have devices covering every inch of downtown that will beam high pitched ringing at anyone that passes by. The only way to stop it would be to press a button on their device that says "Stop the ringing". According to European law, this is good enough to count as "consent".
