ACADEMIC SESSION 2
summary
App store privacy labels are reshaping GDPR compliance but introduce inconsistent categories and web scraper evidence shows uneven adoption: of ~1.6M apps scraped about 40% lack labels, ~34% implemented labels and ~25% claim “no data collected.” A policy proposal calls for published DPIAs when firms cross a data‑power threshold, enabling watchdog scrutiny and class actions. A tracking study using 717 websites (Apr 2018–Dec 2019, WhoTracksMe) finds GDPR cuts distinct trackers by about -2 trackers (≈10%), with larger effects over time and on advertising trackers.
