It doesn't remove the ability to collect, but requires consent. When something is technically possible, and there's a monetary incentive, consent is easy to arrange, either with misleading popups, or by just making the product so sweet that the user forgets about privacy
- icebraining 7y agoMaking the product sweet doesn't work (legally): if you rely on consent for capturing data, you cannot refuse access to the product if the user doesn't consent.
- buboard 7y agomy point is users don't think much before giving their (positive) consent because of the expected dopamine hit from the "fun" of using these services. Try asking the same questions the social media asks (such as your relationship status) in some boring public service. People begin to notice.
