You are correct: implementing GDPR correctly is much, much harder and more expensive than people realise. Cookie banners are just the tip of the iceberg.

A few things not allowed under GDPR:

1. Analytics

2. Third-party resources like fonts or JS libraries

3. CDNs

4. DDOS protection services

And I am sure I am missing many more. I am not a lawyer, but I worked with a few.

Okay, so either you know what you are talking about it or not. If not stop spreading nonsense, if yes, then why are you lying?

Do you have an actual argument or are you here just to call others liars?

Of course you can use third-party resources like fonts or JS libraries.

What you can’t do is trick the client to download something from a third-party source which then spy on the customer.
