That would make any site using mixpanel/google analytics/sentry/etc. illegal. Not so easy to enforce.

- Aerroon 3y agoBut these are two very different scenarios though. When I use a website I'm actively interacting with that website. I want something from their web servers. When I'm using an Nvidia graphics card I'm not actively looking to use their web services. I want the graphics card that I bought to work and that's it. The graphics card doesn't improve as a device by connecting to the internet.

I'm mostly playing devil's advocate here, what I truly think is that all monitoring and analytics should require user approval a bit like cookies. E.g.: you visit a website and it would ask for permission to send monitoring data to listed sites.
