Who really does hope something from the “DnT”

While the ruling against LinkedIn is a welcome development, I’m skeptical it will truly move the needle on respecting user privacy. Do Not Track has been around for years, yet sites continue ignoring it without consequence. This case may set a precedent, but it’s one isolated judgment in Germany.

    Users must expressly agree before their profiles can be visible to non-members.

    Wait the law encourages authwalls? Isn’t that worse?

        That could do both ways tho.

        I dont consent to Facebook and LinkedIn making my profile invisible to internet users who dont have an account with them (which on those platform it is not possible to register and account anonymously)
