USA Today made a version of their site for EU visitors that's compliant with the GDPR
Without:
- ads
- tracking
- personalization
- javascript
It seriously makes me want to check that site from time to time for news. If their point was "see how bad it would be if we didn't do all this stuff?" it's doing the opposite of what it wants because yes, I love this website, that's how I want it and every other one to be like
Honestly, we could do something to encourage a newfound popularity for static websites. Maybe people who aren't in Europe and who have a Twitter account can nag USAToday on it so they make their EU site available for everyone?
Maybe us EU residents can nag websites that now block access to us to do a similar thing that USA Today did?
That could be the start of something
@Siphonay Going to static and stripping out the bullshit would also make #fuckgoogle's AMP project irrelevant.
