It's easy to think "more logging/transparency never hurts" until you actually try it out and see how much data you get that you don't really care about. The EU cookie law is nothing but an annoyance already - making it even more laborious and universal is not going to help anyone. It'd basically be EULAs everywhere.
- nxsynonym 9y agoI see your point - I was thinking more along the lines of a directory of sorts that would show recent data purchases, partnerships, etc. It's too easy to hide your true intentions behind generic EULAs that are inundated with lawyer speak.

Statements could be generalized such that it is understood how all users were affected collectively by a particular decision. It might be a workable middle ground.
