Yes and it’s also not confirming to the regulations that made them add the banner in the first place!
I have no idea why anyone chooses to add a banner and then add one that is obviously in violation. Why not then just not add one? Is it because these cases are not yet enforced/fined so they think “let’s put an obnoxious non-compliant one for now, so we keep ad revenue, and only switch to a compliant one if we are actually sanctioned to do so, or the company across the street is fined to oblivion for doing it?”
Anyone here working at a site that did this? Why?
- DangitBobby 5y agoThey probably don't actually realize it's not compliant. They just saw everyone else doing it and mindlessly followed the herd. Users probably also think they are compliant and blame the EU.
- Nextgrid 5y agoI can believe this argument for a handmade mom & pop site. I will absolutely not believe it for any large tech company such as Google or Facebook or "consent management platform" providers such as TrustArc - that scum knowingly breaches the regulation because their entire business relies on it.
