I've been planning to post about this issue a couple of months ago, when I've noticed that GitHub was sending personal data collected on the client-side to Google Analytics without user consent. Then recently they have introduced a consent popup, which was actually one of the most refreshing cookie consent popups I have ever seen: it contained two buttons, Accept and Reject. This popup has now been removed. I think a lot of developers may have clicked on Reject, though removing tracking cookies will not absolve GitHub of the requirement to continue asking for informed and free consent under GDPR, if they will continue to process personal data, and share it with third-party services from their servers. The current website code points to the same data still being sent to GitHub, only the implementation has changed.
