An acoustic fingerprinting

Деякі люди обожнюють сміятися з GDPR та порівнювати попапи з безглуздими наклейками "без гмо". От хфутбольні гішпанці також сміялися та отримали штрафа у €250K за "breaching GDPR":

'La Liga offers an Android app with a number of features including schedules, kick-off times, and the all-important results. [...]

After gaining consent from users, La Liga’s software turns fans’ phones into spying devices which are able to analyze their surroundings using the microphone, listening out for unauthorized broadcasts in bars and restaurants, for example. This audio, collected Shazam-style, is then paired with phone GPS data to pinpoint establishments airing matches without a license. [...]

As a result, AEPD (Agencia Española de Protección de Datos) has hit La Liga with a significant 250,000 euro fine for not properly informing its users in respect of the ‘microphone’ feature, including not displaying a mic icon when recording.'
