Sorry. My reason for nominating is that it isn't notable. Landpin (talk) 15:50, 30 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy keep. There is plenty of independent news about and analysis of these regulations. To mention just a few I very easily found:

• Four PECR wreckers whacked with fines of £370,000 [1]
• ICO Enforcement Action: £4.63 Million in PECR Fines. [2]
• GDPR & PECR in the UK: Common Mistakes & Insights for 2023. [3]
• What Is the Difference Between the UK GDPR and PECR? [4] MichaelMaggs (talk) 17:18, 30 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
