Gregory's Server@lil_meow_meow @EU_Commission Agree, not caring about the implementation has been a huge problem.
I wish the EU had aligned behind Do Not Track over a decade ago, and had better understood the implementation of cookie consent enough to have avoided the UX disaster of consent pop-ups everywhere.
I was at a roundtable with reps from Microsoft, Apple, Google and the UK ICO years ago; the EU wasn't listening to people telling them to get behind DNT, even with the FTC, W3C and EFF behind it.
@lil_meow_meow @EU_Commission Not having a framework for implementation that includes process for escalation has also made it difficult to hold organizations to account and actually get them to uphold their obligations.
On the tracking side, I hope things work out differently this time with Global Privacy Control header and that the European Commission support the initiative.
It has a huge potential for impact, even for those of us outside the EU.
