Well, only somebody completely out of touch with reality (=government folks) wasn't able to predict outcome of this law. Good thing that there are browsers extensions which take care about removing these "cookies" notification so I don't have to deal with it. Regular users absolutely do not care about privacy,cookies GDPR etc. When events like "cambridge analytica" occur they will be enraged, maybe even some "thumbs down" and "angry face" emotes will appear under facebook news notification before scrolling further down! Probably for HN users it is hard to comprehend because you are looking at the world from inside of your knowledge bubble. More knowledgeable users know that this is total farce and masquerade and don't care about cookie notifications too.
