Reading the posts here I have to take a radically different point of view. Maybe even an unpopular one. These topics, as with most politically discussed topics just aren't important. At least to most constituents. If I look around and talk to people they don't care about digital privacy. On the contrary. They don't want these cookie banners. They blame the GDPR for those. They are pissed because online and offline they need to click banners or fill out paper forms to get even basic services. If I think about the GDPR related things I had to fill out at doctors, veterinarians and such when I (or my animals) needed help I can relate. You just want help not read page after page of legalese. People were trained to correlate data privacy with stuff that annoys them. So no. It doesn't matter. Not to the majority of people I believe. Especially not when it is at the EU level.
