I m a european, GDPR did not change anything substantially. Instead people have to click a few hundreds "I accept" boxes per day and whatever was left of european advertising has completely vanished now. The EU did not have a plan to change advertising, instead you got a rather inane law for the web , spearheaded by the german green left, that did nothing to correct the course of the advertising industry. The EU after gdpr should have required google to break up in europe, to force it to become one of the players. Instead we get politicians flexing and patting themselves on the back for the large fines they are able to impose on US tech, while the EU continues to render itself internet-irrelevant. The brussels microcosm is an overpaid crowd that s not good for business
