and most of them use dark patterns to not let us disable analytics.
There are websites with hundreds of "partners" that you have to disable one by one if you don't want to get their cookies.
For once the EU is fighting the good fight, but they have no teeth. Look at the quagmire that is Google privacy options list.
- pestaa 6y agoThese dark patterns are explicitly non-compliant under GDPR. There are already precedents of large fines for similar bullshit. It just takes a very long time, but when doing business in the EU, following the letter of these regulations won't be enough.
