Nvidia's $1,100 AI brain for robots goes on sale

I clicked through the various 'manage settings' dialogues starting at the 'before you continue...' splashscreen and eventually found a list [0] of Oath partners who "participate and allow choice via the Interactive Advertising Bureau (IAB) Transparency and Consent Framework (TCF)". The list contains more than 200 different organisations.

I decided not to read the article.

Do these companies not realize that this is just in violation of GDPR? Might as well entirely ignore it if you are just going to blatantly violate it anyway.

The GDPR is pretty clear that fully opting out should be as easy as opting in. "Going to a third party site and manage your choices with 200 organizations" will not hold up in court.

Until the EU takes those companies to court and wins nothing will change.

EU doesn't need to "take those companies to court". EU regulator just fines them. If company disagrees then it may end up in court.

Why does this just sound terrifying to me?

Funny because they're about the least scary entity in the digital advertising space.

Personally, I would prefer to batch my advertising. Ideally while my eyes were not on the screen.

uBlock Origin & uMatrix allow you to read the site without seeing that popup or sending data to the advertisers. I realize that you shouldn't need to do that, but imo it's the reality we leave in.

I run uBlock Origin & uMatrix in my browser of choice.

Because (reasons) I opened the article in Edge and was dropped into the reality that I ignore most of the time. I posted because I don't think it hurts sometimes to be reminded of reality.

The lack of umatrix in safari is my biggest gripe — otherwise its a lot more pleasant than chrome/ff.

Browsing on mobile is always the same trouble too, entering a world where everything went wrong

I find uMatrix pretty hard to configure to not break everything while safeguarding my privacy. I prefer to use private tabs for these kinds of situations, though I wished I understood better what I was doing when configuring uMatrix.

Whenever I get prompted by such an aggresive cookie wall I just open it in a private tab with uBlock Origin loaded as well.

I already use Firefox Focus as a standard browser on mobile and use private tabs on the desktop more and more as well. Whenever I want to reply or use a service that requires cookies (such as logging in on HN) I use the regular session.

Subpar but it works with minimal effort.
