Can't wait for heise to report it where I have to click away their Pay or OK to see their article.

Finde ja deren „Hinweis“ witzig:

Transparenzhinweis: heise online bietet selbst ein Pur-Abo an. Nach Beanstandung wurde das Consent-Banner in Rücksprache mit der Landesbeauftragten für den Datenschutz Niedersachsen überarbeitet.

Even more "funny": You have to pay extra even if you are already subscribed to their "premium" content.

Hm. Next lawsuit incoming? Last year in August noyb has sued the State Data Protection Commissioner of the City of Hamburg for "advising" Der Spiegel on its version of the pay or ok model.

Not really hard, that happens every time someone starts a lawsuit or a judge rules that those banners don't follow the law.
