GDPR for lazy people: Block all European users with Cloudflare Workers

You control to whom you give the space on your site. You contract somebody to do this under the terms you negotiate with them. "This is somebody else, they are just paying me" won't work. (And well, if the ad network is GDPR compliant it is relatively little work for you to add the note, if they are not GDPR compliant they may not target Europeans)

Again, this argument is a stretch for sites that are otherwise immune under Recital 23. It is one that may be tested by the most abusive GDPR enforcers, but I believe that test will ultimately fail.

Regardless, it’s one more reason to block radioactive EU traffic.

Your page is showing European ads and you are earning money of those. For me, as a user, the ad network is an implementation choice of your business.

Probably you can offload some challenges to the ad network, if they don't tell you enough of their business, but that's between you and them. For me I'm accessing your site.
