    Lol I’m a web developer who has put hundreds of those banners on clients’ sites. Not as part of some nefarious data-selling scheme, but rather as a shallow tickbox exercise in order to comply with laws about technology they don’t understand.

    In this case, assuming ignorance over malice is the way to go.

        In any case you are welcome to make incorrect assumptions, especially if my statement hurt your feelings.
