honestly this is terrible advice. I know it's annoying to many people, but the EU isn't autonomously pursuing corps big or small - its legislation will kick into action if _anyone_ files a complaint after visiting your website, and you'll be subject to the same possible penalties as anyone.

Iirc, though, the law states that the fine will come only if you don’t comply with an initial warning, which will always have to be the first step. In that case, you can easily comply and not be fined.
absolutely, but that hardly means OPs approach of "just fk it" is sane advice
