Within 5 minutes of usage my pihole instance blocked 100s of request and DDG app protection blocked facebook trackers. This should be illegal

Sounds like they found their life easier by just not bothering with EU. Now I wonder, what kind of result you would’ve gotten if they had decided to try and comply enough so that GDPR wouldn’t crucify them again.

Likely they’ll continue to do the same with gdpr, just make you click through a dark pattern agreement popup.

That’s the fun part! GDPR requires these things to be clear and whatever waiver you sign doesn’t hold.
