Interesting, because said practice from German news sites seems to have the blessing of the data privacy authorities. Sadly I can't find the source. It must have been one of the data privacy newsletters I receive. So the Norge argument here would go further and I would like to see this challenged to the European Court as this would provide a final verdict. Currently I feel that different countries see these things quite a bit different. On the other hand it would only mean that you can't have a free version refinanced through advertising, but would need to find other ways of converting users into paying customers while still providing a striped down free app for generating reach.
