I'm bracing myself for the downvotes, but I'm going to post this anyway. What do you mean with personal data anyway? In GDPR this means: a name and surname; a home address; an email address such as name.surname@company.com; (NOT info@company.com!!!!) an identification card number; location data (for example the location data function on a mobile phone); an Internet Protocol (IP) address; a cookie ID; the advertising identifier of your phone; data held by a hospital or doctor, which could be a symbol that uniquely identifies a person. For the IP address, I never count on the fact that they don't track it. Who does??? Same for location. Why would you think a website wouldn't be able to get your location, unless you take some real measure to prevent it. Some consent popup isn't going to convince me that they will or will not track it. I don't give a shit, I expect EVERY website to track this. For the rest, well, if I provide my info to the website, I'm guessing that they can also identify me with it, no? If I don't want the website to know it, I just don't provide it. Same thing here: I really don't care what their consent message says. So long story short: If I want to keep some privacy, I will definitely not rely on the "word of the website" that they will handle it any way they say. If I want privacy, I will take care of that myself. And for the rest of the legal bullshit, I never read it anyway. EULA's etc.... who does?
