GDPR is neither horrible nor half baked. The word you're looking for is flawed. I don't know why you expected it to be perfect from the get-go when it's such a complex subject in the first place.
What it is however is a major step up from before. It's an excellent start. You won't do any better by scrapping the whole thing and starting over. You can improve it.
Explain to me why you're better off without it.
- soheil 8y agoCookie warning is probably the biggest thing for me, I can see the web slowly dying before my eyes little by little with dumb things like banners blocking 5% of all websites. All you need is 20 more dumb rules and there won't be anything to see on any website you first visit ever again. I'm not saying cookie warning is 100% the result of GDPR but it as sure as hell is a side effect. We must be careful about possible outcomes of our actions no matter how noble our intentions. Go ahead downvote!

And without breaking my browser, as I have to do sometimes (disable js or block all cookies-- see how long you can go without running into a completely broken website). GPDR is both imperfect and awesome.
