Could you perhaps muster up the courage to clearly substantiate what you're criticizing? These terms "government", "regulation", "lawmakers" come off as dogwhistles. It's not like evil Ursula von der Leyen walked up to the blue lectern and said websites now must present a dialog with one button before you can look at the content.

If you're talking about GDPR, then it regulates that businesses have to have reason to store and process PII. I don't see a reason to be unhappy about that.
