You mean the GDPR, the amazing piece of legislation that allows any user to see all the tracking websites do and even allows the user to limit said tracking, just by deselecting some toggle switches?
Incidentally, it’s mostly people who know NOTHING about technology who keep complaining that it’s sooo hard to click a button.
Overwhelming people with information doesn’t work, never worked. Do you think the majority of people in Europe care about accepting all the consents that come up when they open a web page?
