It's even more important to not introduce privacy laws that are misleading and give a false sense of security, thus averting public from the core problem.

If you can be tracked you will be tracked, eventually but almost inevitably. The law could be used to provide some remedy for damages caused by tracking, but it should be introduced only after core problem with tracking (browsers willingly tag users for indefinite time with invisible tokens, in an quite stealthy manner) is solved.

Hard to argue with that @drdaeman. Let's say in an ideal world I'd agree with every last thing you said. Again, it sure isn't perfect, it may be a start. Worse than no developments at all? We're doing our job at iubenda to help developers/website operators to keep up with the developments that are out there right now.
