The four color theorem was proven with the help of a computer in 1976 [0]. The event gave rise to the concept of non-surveyable proof [1]. As far as I can tell, it has never been proven without the help of a computer. [0] https:/&#x2F

In the time since the article was published (2017), the GDPR has come into effect. I wonder how it affected third-party traffic, if at all. Especially for European websites such as lemonde.fr (used as an example by the author).
