    It’s a lot easier to dislike GDPR when you don’t live in a country that benefits from it, but it still annoys you.

      no one benefits from it (at least from the part regarding cookies, which i am honestly not sure is part of gdpr)

      before that, you just dealt with cookies with whatever cookie extension you preferred. now you would have to trust the site to store your rejection in a cookie, because guess what happens next time you visit the site when it doesn’t find any cookie.

      and these fucking dialogs are hard to get rid off even with ublock origin.

      so it is definitely the case of road to hell paved with good intentions.
