The European Data Protection Supervisor issued a decision that the European Commission illegally targeted ads using sensitive political data. The EDPS issued only a reprimand, noting no fine was needed as the practice stopped. The decision was based on Regulation (EU) 2018/1725.
Why it matters: The ruling shows EU institutions can be held accountable for unlawful political micro‑targeting of citizens.
