It's a shame there were no claimed benefits to privacy but adtech getting bogged down is very much an intended outcome.
The shitty cookie popups and what not are a symptom of how awful the adtech industry is. The alternative to getting bogged down was probably getting outright destroyed, and i don't think EU businesses are ready for that.
