Exactly!

You’ll soon have to fill out a form as if undergoing surgery just to visit a website. (And, of course, were all gonna click “Accept all”, just as we do with cookie warnings and Apple TOS.)

These judges do not know what they do. They only care about getting the case off their desk, clinging to the first semi plausible argument that allows them to do so. If you look for vision, guidance or responsibility for shaping the future I which we want to live, look elsewhere.

This is entirely a fault of the site owners.

They proved again and again that they know what they are doing.

Yeah, the GDPR has done a lot of good already. The lawmakers clearly knew what they were doing.

Unironically yes.
