      Why, as an American, do I have to navigate an internet full of pop ups designed to make sites GDPR compliant?

        I really need to have a Cookie setting agent just to say, “don’t track me or use bare essential cookies;” it’s annoying. I just want them to use bare essentials, then let me opt in for features. But no, “sell, sell, sell” (our user data, whatever is similar to previous user searches, etc.) 🤢

      I have a news for you, this isn’t just American internal politics. Surveillance capitalism is happening across the world. There are those pushing for chat control in the EU and UK is starting to do the same and contracted Palantir to manage the NHS data.

        I am not American. I don’t want to hear about your internal politics. I have already enough work activating for the EU ones.
