Sorry, can you explain to me what's stupid about it?

Not allowing information about people to be kept ad-infinitum (and sold ad-infinitum)?

Allow data breaches caused by sheer incompetence to go unchecked?

As much as I worry about its consequences, companies saw it coming.

The average computer user has difficulty searching their email or scheduling a meeting. You expect them to complete a nag screen about how their personal information is going to be used, with sliders for opt-in versus opt-out, every time they visit a new website?

Like the cookie nag, users are going to blindly click through until the confusing nag screen goes away and then be upset that it wasted their time.
