    If i don't pass or implement the required code to get users consent does this mean no users in Europe will see ads? or they still will see ads they will just be non targeted ?

    There is no required code to implement. In the relevant regions, Unity Ads will automatically pop up a dialog box for players to review and confirm their preference.

    From our documentation:
    Source: https://unityads.unity3d.com/help/legal/gdpr

    If a user opts-out, they will only receive contextual advertisements.

    I am using AdMob mediation and in the docs for mediating with Unity they have that It is recommended to call this, my question is what if I don't call this ? will users in Europe still see ads just not targeted ?

    MetaData gdprMetaData = new MetaData(this);
    
gdprMetaData.set("gdpr.consent", true);
    
gdprMetaData.commit();

    I'm not able to find any AdMob documentation that recommends manually editing the metadata. The page I found specified that it was not compatible with mediation:
    https://developers.google.com/admob/unity/mediation/unity#eu_consent_and_gdpr

    Regardless of whether you use your own consent solution or Unity's consent solution, a user would be declining personalized ads, but they would still get ads.
