> Not sure GDPR applies to apps though.

GDPR applies to we the people and the organizations who hold our data. Doesn't matter if it's morse code on paper strips.

If we can dictate warnings on tobacco packages, we can dictate the wording on consent banners to not be "We care about your privacy" but instead "We want to track you for profit".

At least the banners that say "we value your privacy" are honest about it
