- marvin 7y agoImagine seeing some 10 million euro fines over that. Would be glorious.
- solarkraft 7y agoWould be. But I'm not aware of much actual GDPR enforcement ... :(
- Gwypaas 7y agoIt is starting to come, still mostly big players though https://www.enforcementtracker.com/ https://www.enforcementtracker.com/
- BurningFrog 7y agoOnce you've made everyone a criminal, enforcement is always selective.
- fxtentacle 7y agoI believe withdraw is after the fact, while what we need here is an option to reject the consent in the first place.
- tgsovlerkhgsel 7y agoIf the rule was applied literally and strictly, that would be even better. Is consent given by agreeing to a huge banner that pops up anew every time you load the page? Fine, you can do that, but then you have to pop up a huge "withdraw consent" banner every time a user that gave consent visits your site. Which you probably don't want, so you can't do the obnoxious opt-in banner either. In practice, that would make any obnoxious way to ask for consent untenable, because you couldn't use it to annoy users into consenting (and staying in consenting state).
