I'm convinced there's a psyop on this site when it comes to GDPR, and I'm only half-joking. If people would bother to read those intrusive banners, they'd notice that their info is being harvested and shared with hundreds, even thousands of "partners". In what universe is this something we should be okay with? Why exactly does some random ecommerce site need to harvest my data and share it with a bajillion "partners" of theirs? Why are we okay with that?

I hate that the psychotic data harvesting assholes behind all these dark patterns emerged victorious by just straight up lying to people and deluding them into thinking GDPR was the issue, and not them and their shitty dark pattern banners
