Which it, surprising no one competent, did.
- dmitriid 8y agoThere's one important caveat you're missing: the vast majority of these cookie banners are illegal under GDPR. So yes, it's rather obvious the EU learned a lot. The law forbids dark patterns, coercing into accepting, delegating opt-outs to third party sites, and requiring collection of more data than is strictly necessary to operate the site.
