On Monday, 29 July 2024, the Austrian privacy and digital rights group NOYB published its 2023 annual report, highlighting its accomplishments for the year. These included filing over 40 new complaints and several major decisions in NOYB cases, resulting in substantial fines.
Among the standout cases in 2023, NOYB filed two complaints against Meta's tiered (consent or pay) subscription model. The year also saw significant fines imposed on companies that had violated EU law. Meta was fined €390 million in January and €1.2 billion with an order to halt the transfer of Europeans' personal data to the United States at the end of May.
NOYB thanked its 5,200 supporting members, institutional members, and individual donors for their unwavering support, acknowledging that none of its work would have been feasible without their generosity and dedication.
