The part I find funny about people calling the bureaucrats tech illiterate, is so many users on tech forums are illiterate on the topic themseleves, e.g., believing deleting cookies is a solution to tracking.


This is probably the second biggest win by the spyware industry, the first being making spyware effectively legal (by virtue of lack of enforcement - which persists even today with the GDPR) and socially-acceptable to begin with. They've now managed to convince a significant chunk of tech people that merely deleting cookies is totally enough to defeat tracking.
