The alternative is much worse which every company tracking you with your consent. It was scary to see what data Facebook collects on you if you are logged out.

I suspect the EU will introduce new legislation in due course, but of course, they are heavily lobbied too by the tech industry, so it may take some time.,
- jonplackett 7y agoFacebook still are tracking us all though because they’ve just dark-patterned their way around the regulation. So we have the same data sharing, and now I’m annoyed every time I get to a website. I’m not arguing for a return to what we had. Just pointing out that what we have does not work yet. Plus lots of companies are clearly in breach - like when they say ‘by continuing to use this site you agree to the terms and conditions’ this is not active consent. But nothing is done.
