This doesn't matter, EU sites have been getting fined for some time now for using CDNs like this, most popularly Google Fonts.

- nolok 4y agoYou are allowed to dismiss your right to privacy is you so desire but the majority of EU citizens have decided not to.
- nickpp 4y agoWe've actually never been asked. Some unelected bureaucrats decided "for our own good".
- nolok 4y agoThey're elected representative. You were asked in the most official way possible, with elections. Both in your national election which then decided the government which chose your country EU representative for the council and commission, which then created the law and decided to put it to a vote and where your government had a direct veto right, and in the European election where you elected the parliament that voted on the GDPR. I recommend you inform yourself on the institution that govern you and how you can influence them, you seem to be deeply uneducated about them.

- nickpp 4y agoNone of the representatives I voted for got elected. No candidate had on her proposal list "hunt and close cookie consent dialogs on the web forever". I recommend you go out on the street and find out how real governing in the EU works, you seem to be deeply idealistic about it. It’s important, it could be why the next brexit happens.
