Would this get past the GDPR? I get the defeatism, there are powerful actors, but it doesn't mean we shouldn't try to improve the situation.

- whereismyacc 2y agoIsn't this one of those things that is going to require a landmark case?
- krageon 2y agoNo, it's not legal. It's clearly not legal, it doesn't need a case. It's well established in the law as it was written. It's just that the enforcement agencies are large, lazy and won't enforce anything. They don't even enforce when you can prove beyond a shadow of a doubt when and how the corporations have leaked your private information, let alone when their use of cookies is illegal.
- antonkochubey 2y agoGDPR enforcement actions are happening quite often in the EU. https://www.enforcementtracker.com https://www.enforcementtracker.com
- krageon 2y agoIt depends on the country. When I filter for specific countries, it really can be very rare. Look at the difference between Germany and say Austria, for example. Or if you must compare two large countries Germany and France. There is quite a large gap between different countries.
