 @2a48eef0 European anti-cookie laws and the US "National Do Not Call List" backfired.
You can just delete a cookie or use a separate user for shitpoasting and you can just not answer any unrecognized number; now government is going to give google it's blessing to collect and record personal identifiable information, so called "AML" and "KYC"; and share it back with the government. 
 Can't just tell people to block cookies automatically with a browser plugin, that's too hard. I'm glad the EU is around to make sure every website on the god damn planet will now harass me with GDPR consent modals on every visit (even when it's a LOCAL NEWS AFFILIATE IN THE UNITED GOD DAMN FUCKING STATES) until the end of time.
