I don't think firing 25% would be enough. Ultimately the entire purpose of the company is to provide a solution that allows companies to pseudo-comply with the GDPR without actually complying.

Actual compliance would require removing all the trackers & other bullshit and then you no longer need a "consent management platform", therefore this company ceases to exist and 100% of the employees are let go.

If you ask people whether they want to be tracked (in a GDPR-compliant way, which involves listing all the data points collected, how is it stored & used and with whom it is shared) 99% of people will outright say no, therefore the best course of action is to remove the trackers and no need for this company to exist at all.

Yeah, my remark was based on the presumption that there would be a viable product without all the lying and cheating. You’re probably right there isn’t.
