Maybe but it feels like 1 step forward and 2 steps back. It feels like in the end they’re (companies) still getting 99% of what they had before and the user experience of everything is much worse.
The blah user experience isn't the whole picture for GDPR. It's just been the most visible part of it.
My personal GDPR hot take: it's actually been 2 steps forward and 1 super clumsy super loud and obnoxious step back.
I agree with the spirit of comment above. The common sense part of it (if there is one) might just end up eclipsed by wonky UX absurdity. Someone will find a way to paint this picture that our EU reality is a Kafkaesque dystopia.
