I will be very surprised if they are found guilty of anything or even charged.

    On a somehow slightly ironic note I cannot read about these uplifting events from the EU. :-) The EU is just not free enough, or something: "Unfortunately, our website is currently unavailable in most European countries. We are engaged on the issue and committed to looking at options that support our full range of digital offerings to the EU market. We continue to identify technical compliance solutions that will provide all readers with our award-winning journalism."

      Easier to add that message than to have a popup for you to mindlessly click "agree" on.

        Is it? I don't think a cookie popup is the issue here. EU websites have those too. I think what's being done with the data they are collecting is the issue.
