They’re not necessary unless you’re doing non-annoymised tracking, like, for example, using the Devil’s Spawn that is Facebook Pixel. If websites are doing this, and asking you to consent they need to be punished - hit the back button and boycott them forever. It’s completely unnecessary - the web would be a so much better place is we all did this.

How are you going to boycott the entire internet? Most websites I visit show this pop up and it’s more convenient to just click ok than to move to 5 different screens and waste another 30 seconds. This is what happens when you don’t address every aspect of side effects when making the law.

People get accustomed to it just like those California cancer warning labels that are basically useless and nothing but a waste.

So they don't comply with the law. People working for these sites choose to make this difficult and harder than its supposed to be.

Have you considered, perhaps, the entire internet and the business community is boycotting the rules because it has many loop holes and is poorly thought out?
