Max Schrems, the Austrian activist lawyer whose 13-year legal crusade against Meta is what gradually removed those options

I wonder, does anyone know how would one go about acomplishing something like this? One of major websites here in Czech, and a major search engine, has started doing exactly the same thing - pay or agree. And I really don't like that. Are there organizations you can contact, or do you have to have the resources to just sue them?

You should search for something like "data protection office" in Czech language, they likely have tips on how to lodge a complaint.

edit: should be a good website: https://uoou.gov.cz/en/consultation/contact
