OneTrust, Evidon, and the rest of the "privacy management" services...why can't I just click once at their site that I don't want any cookies from any of the companies that use them?

I just went through a thing with Evidon where each of their opt outs is a JS-required redirect, and when you get to a company like Adobe, you have to click on a million things with a million disappointments.

It's intentional, and fuck you if you don't like it. Sorry, more like FUCK YOU if you don't like it.

It's clear, that the GDPR should be amended so the only way that tracking will be allowed is to have user send a notary signed letter every year saying that s/he wants to be tracked with a minimum 3 pages of attachment explanation why tracking is so great (in own words, no templates allowed). The company will be required to keep physical copies of these letters for 10 years for random checkups.

Fuck the adtech industry.

I don't, the only times that I clicked on ads was by accident or site did some shenanigans to make me click on it. I absolutely never bought anything based on ad on site.
