> My job was building cookie walls in response to GDPR.

If you're building cookie walls, you are not building them in response to GDPR.

You wouldn't need to build cookie walls if people you work for didn't, say, store precise geolocation of everyone for 12 years: https://x.com/dmitriid/status/1817122117093056541
