Trust arc is incredibly obnoxious



Is this kind of artificial delay even legal under the GDRP? Does anyone know if there has been any lawsuits against trust arc and co over this stuff? After waiting forever I was greeted with: "Some opt-outs failed. Opt-out requests responded with error or timeout. Please try again". How is this okay?


It isn’t (GDPR regulates how consent can be obtained and shenanigans like these are an obvious example of bad faith) but the entities supposed to enforce the GDPR are absolutely incompetent and don’t care.


Especially as a corporate site (that is, not a click-farm that relies on tracking ads) this is unacceptable

"Trust arc" I'd trust the site more if it had a sensible cookie policy
