The author of the article is claiming it extends beyond ads.

That does not appear to be what the court actually said, however.

And I 100% believe that all advertisements should require review by a documented human before posting, so that someone can be held accountable. In the absence of this it is perfectly acceptable to hold the entire organization liable.

The ruling is about an advertisement, but:

> There’s nothing inherently in the law or the ruling that limits its conclusions to “advertisements.” The same underlying factors would apply to any third party content on any website that is subject to the GDPR.

So site operators probably need to assume it doesn’t just apply to ads if they have legal exposure in the EU.
