All good points, but it misses a long running issue rapidly emerging into prominence from the recent spate of industry offerings to consumers to give them some control - the sum of all these different notices and controls from lots of apps and platforms etc is overwhelming and does not come together in a way that the ordinary user is going to understand or have time to get across.

This could be suggested to the DAP Working Group IMHO. Some kind of notification infrastructure is definitely needed whether we talk about informed consent (EU) or notice & choice (US). Best, Rigo
