It violates GDPR, so it's illegal in the EU in general (plus UK & Switzerland). The relevant parts are Article 7 Paragraph 4, and Recital 43. In short, consent isn't valid if it's a condition for an unrelated contract. h

A language that compiles to C does not inherit all of C's problems, and doesn't "punt" on it for undefined behavior. I mean, after all, Rust compiles to Assembly, which is even unsafer than C, but Rust is still considere

That's actually one of the features of CCPA. If there's a data breach, the company can be sued by each affected individual for $100-$750. This is entirely separate from strict liability, though. The main issue is damages . Even i
