Under the DPC’s draft decision, Facebook would be allowed to dispense with the need to ask users for consent to use their data and to provide the right to opt out of such consent each time they log on to the platform.

Instead, consent would be one of the terms and conditions of the contract accepted by users when they sign up for the service in the first place. And they would not be able to opt out without being shut out of the social media platform altogether.
