@gruber I feel like the problem is the tracking, rather than them needing to disclose it. Nobody is forcing them to include third party analytics!

@Gargron @gruber looks like John isn't really addressing real issues, he just likes to rant about EU politics and spill the bad takes!

@Gargron @gruber These cookie banners aren't even compliant with the law anyway.

Like you said, just don't include third-party analytics and you don't need any banners. You'd think somebody who peddles Apple would be in favour of that!

@Gargron @gruber He’s not looking for a good faith discussion - it’s just bad faith, jingoistic, posting.

@Gargron @gruber that’s exactly the point. They wouldn’t even need to get rid of third party analytics, using something like Plausible (which is orders of magnitude better than Google Analytics btw) would be enough to get rid of that awful dialog.

@Gargron @gruber it’s a bad faith argument, no point in engaging

@Gargron @gruber They HAVE to use third party analytics. Imagine trying to sell click tracking to an advertiser and being the only one in control of the data. Advertisers kinda want verification the stats are accurate. Otherwise, you’re buying possible snake oil.
