in my opinion this is a total misunderstanding of the situation:

1. people are being taken advantage of 2. law is introduced to make it harder to take advantage of people 3. scummy people still try and take advantage by trying to confuse their users

and now please tell me why i should be on the scummy person side again?

you don't need a cookie notification if you don't serve cookies for other people. and you don't need any GDPR notifications if you are not selling sharing or needlessly storing peoples data.

you are going to websites run by scummy people, that is the problem not the law.

in essence if you are not shitty to people these laws really don't have much impact.
