The law may be a one-liner that just wants to protect the users privacy. But this vagueness makes this law so extremely bad. Companys don't know anymore what's allowed and what not, so in order not to risk getting sued by some greedy shenanigans they just put up some cookie consent wall up. Can i use tools like Microsoft Clarity or Google Pages without getting sued by not having some cookie banner? Who knows anymore without getting an expensive lawyer and then i have to deal with the expensive technical changes required to implement these regulation wich especially hurts small or one-person software shops while big co doesn't care anyway.
