No one's performed a proper survey AFAIK, but the GDPR opt-out rate is very very low, which provides weak evidence. This is not evidence of numbers, but I have an existence proof in that I also personally know a lot of people who know and insist on not opting out.
- gpderetta 7y ago> GDPR opt-out rate is very very low, Then again GDPR requires opt-in, but most sites ignore that and many make the opt out extremely time consuming.
- 100100010001 7y agoYour proof is that you “personally know a lot of people who know and insist on not opting out”? That’s anecdotal evidence at best (aka not proof).
- scarejunba 7y agoThis is a confusing interpretation of what I said: > This is not evidence of numbers, but I have an existence proof in that I also personally know a lot of people who know and insist on not opting out. Most people I know would interpret that as "I know I'm not the only one because". After all, I specifically say "not evidence of numbers" and I also specifically say "existence proof". I find your response baffling.
- afiori 7y agoAt best this proves that this law is harmless.
- scarejunba 7y agoI don't think the law is harmful. I'm considering the absence of opt-outs and the general prevalence of opt-ins evidence of people not being eager to opt-out.
