Has anyone ever been prosecuted or fined under this law, in any country?
Although many high profile sites now show the cookie banner, it still seems like 99% of sites operating out of the EU don't show anything, even when they use Google Analytics or use ad networks that use cookies.

- apexalpha 9y agoI think the EU is dropping this bs law. They figured out how the internet works, finally.

- justusw 9y ago(I am only describing the situation in Germany) I can say from my own founding experience that you want to avoid being investigated, at least in Germany. While I am a big privacy fanatic, the current way rules are implemented is quite labor intense for small founder teams. As a matter of fact, cookie laws will be your most benign issue to solve. The biggest challenge is that most tech startups that deal with personal data need to appoint a certified privacy officer, which can be ridiculously expensive.
