It is absolutely a failure of regulators to regulate. It's not only a failure of regulators.
Designers of the tech are doing it because it's legal.
It's legal because regulators aren't enforcing laws in ways conducive to modern tech.
- max_ 6y agoLook at GDPR. Regulators came in but we just ended up with disgusting pop ups and now legal over head for web developers.
- inetknght 6y agoDisgusting pop-ups are a side effect that help to demonstrate the problem. That's not the fault of GDPR. That's the fault of companies that (think they) are outside of the jurisdiction of GDPR.
