Think there is a need for a clarification. It says _member states_ of EU have trackers on their websites. Not EU itself.

Depends on if you think fonts.googleapis.com and fonts.gstatic.com cookies are "trackers on their websites" both of which are found on http://europa.eu/rapid/press-release_STAT-19-1728_en.htm

Though I did have to do a bit of clicking around until Privacy Badger found something so it looks like they at least are trying.

It's certainly handing data to google, which isn't great for integrity. But we're complaining at a high standard.
Seriously. What would be more interesting would finding some low standard things worth complaining about. Like potable tap water in <pick your city>.
So? EU laws are a suite of national laws.
What the hell are you talking about?
