Default Google is redirecting me to a "consent" page - is it new or just me ?

I don't think that you, just like VanguardLH, are aware of what the GDPR is
really about. I give you a hint : Its /not/ about cookies.

If that where so than just a "who progresses beyond this point" style of
banner or even a small-small-small text at he bottom of the page would have
been enough (shrink-wrap EULAs anyone?). The fact that the GDPR specifies
that the visitor has to be *activily* involved seems to indicate something
different.


So, I noticed.

Should there be a law to disallow anyone from claiming that what they state
is according to a law which in actuality, has nothing to do with what they
claim? (does that make sense?)

Ofcourse, the GDPR is directly opposite the website-owners / companies
stance that nobody is allowed to deny them anything, so they try to trash
it. The mere fact that most all websites sites have a prominent "yes"
button, but no complementing "no" button should tell you enough in that
regard.


I never trust websites' and softwares' statements/policies ever since I can
not personally confirm their honestly.
