While this is true, the EU does have a tendency to step in and start enforcing technical requirements if the industry doesn't respond. USB-C, for instance, has been standardised, because attempts to tell the industry "one plug, you people figure out which one" didn't work.
It's still early days for the GDPR (relatively speaking), but I can see the EU enforcing a particular privacy-related mechanism eventually.
It also doesn't help that DNT is just a boolean signal, it doesn't give you the control over your data that the GDPR demands.
- p_l 1y agoRelatively speaking GDPR at this point is just shy of 30 years old - that's when most of the effective rules came into play. What changed the most with GDPR is that enforcement now has teeth. Not as big teeth as say, NIS2, which actually has executives more concerned than middle level about being compliant, but still big.
