Noyb slams EU plan to loosen GDPR rules for AI training

Max Schrems' campaign group noyb has attacked European Commission proposals to amend the GDPR so companies can process personal data for AI development under a "legitimate interest" without user consent. Noyb calls it a "digital expropriation" of Europeans and hints at another legal challenge at the EU Court of Justice.

• Proposed Article 88c lets firms process personal data for AI under "legitimate interest"
• Noyb says no user consent would be needed if data is used "in the context" of AI
• Schrems: interests of Musk, Zuckerberg, Google and OpenAI would trump privacy rights
• Noyb previously struck down Safe Harbor and Privacy Shield in EU courts
