People also don't realize that this can happen without AI (insurance companies data mining for example) so such a law is a good thing.

Data mining was already addressed. There's a copyright exception that says you can data mine publicly accessible stuff, as well as outlining who can do that and for what purposes (mostly scientific).

2019 Directive for Copyright in the Digital Single Market, articles 3 and 4. The two regulations kinda complement each other.

By chance, is there a list anywhere of the various regulations the EU has implemented to regulate tech companies? It's really phenomenal work, and I'd love to read about the arc of it all.
