WTH is this shit?!

edit: for those wondering, the setting can be found under Settings -> Privacy -> GDPR for the EU version only I think

    That is illegal by the way. You should have a single button to reject all. You can report it to your data protection authority

    They love this.

      Hm, I’m curious how the law interacts with apps in alpha and beta. Like if an app is brand new and still under development, does it have to follow those laws immediately or is there some leeway because of the app being new

        From my knowledge of the EU as citizen I would say probably not, if they do something exceptions are only made for companies who spend a lot of money lobbying or if public outrage is big enough

        Why would it be legal to ignore the law because your product is in alpha or beta? Hell, Gmail was in “beta” for like the first 10 years of its existence.

          I’m thinking more about apps that aren’t released to the public in any way.

          I guess the old use of the word “beta” where things were tested by paid people instead of the public

        It doesn’t matter, app in development can hurt privacy just as well and must follow the same rules.
