> Basically it’s the cookie banner again. Served no-one (at least definitely not the consumers), but annoyed a lot. Oh no, you have to be given the option to not permit your data to be shared with ~1000 different partners with "legitimate" interests. Honestly, the only thing that is wrong with GDPR is that it came out too late.

90% of the websites today use google analytics which is not GDPR compliant, and yet nothing happens. Ironically Apple did more for privacy than GDPR ever did, and was able to enforce it… by having a walled garden!

  > yet nothing happens Every time you dismiss a "we care for your privacy" banner, you're being made aware that your data is shared with hundreds or thousands of data brokers with "legitimate interest". The fact that vendors prefer to make your experience miserable rather than give up tracking is another example of "malicious compliance". What happens is that you now have the right to request a copy of the personal information a site has collected and ask them to delete it. You can also sue them if they don't fulfil your request. You're welcome to exercise your rights as an EU citizen at any time.
