You must ask for explicit consent first if you really want to use Google Ads. You cannot requires to send the user data to Google or block the access, though you may get away with that. Some websites in Europe also have an option between paid access or ads with tracking which may be legal.
- FreeHugs 5y agoYes, that is basically how I understand it too. My question is what people here on HN who run free, ad supported sites do. As far as I know, the GDPR says that not giving consent must not have negative consequences for the user. If it means they have to pay, how is that not a negative consequence?
