The thousands of Euros spent on lawyers and development time to become compliant, plus all the time wasted.

Really a great accomplishment by the EU... in addition to clicking a shitty "I accept cookies" banner on every damn website I visit, I now frequently also have to click another popup for GDPR and multiple checkboxes for GDPR when I signup somewhere. As if anyone ever bothered reading those.

As far as I'm concerned, it's all just a huge waste and the internet was better off before politicians got involved.
