    Wouldn’t really matter for most sites hosted in America. American businesses do not have to comply unless they have EU customers.

    International sites like YouTube absolutely has some system that will switch the cookie tracking depending on geo location, from CCPA to GDPR.

    But American sites don’t really gaf. Small News site in America, unless they’re paying for a fancy Cookie Consent Management tool, is doing it the US way and it’s opt out, regardless of where you’re coming from.

    For example: if Kansas News site gets a warning from the EU about cookies, they’re not going to care. They don’t have the budget, and honestly, easier to just block all IPs from outside the US.

    If you hate this, stop using American products and services. (And I say this as a privacy concerned American)

        “legally”

        Remember when Trump told EU companies to stop DEI policies and EU laughed? It goes both ways.

          This isn’t legislation that lacks teeth. Fines of US companies have been in the hundreds of millions of dollar. US companies take GDPR seriously
