It also takes extra work to ask consent. You build it. You don't notice that your confirmation screen fails to trigger. You've just unintentionally uploaded a bunch of data without consent, when your intention was to do it with consent.

It's still pretty darn negligent, but it's easy to see how it could be done unintentionally.
