mr-user13504yThey could not add such feature.
Correct me if I am wrong but I remember that GDPR law applied even to EU citizen living outside of Europe.
Therefore they cannot add a feature of adding a pop up based on location since you don't know for sure if the EU citizen is viewing your website. -
And the GDPR legally requires that the popup be there, because it requires explicit, unambiguous consent before they're allowed to use cookies or any form of tracking at all.
-
Or they could just make their popups actually decent. Or, even better, get rid of the tracking so the popups aren't required. But that would be too user friendly.
-
Even better: make your shitty website GDPR compliant without popup for everyone. Essential stuff like webshop cookies doesn't need user consent, just a description in the privacy page.

But people are idiot i want gdpr to be apply but use Chrome browser ... Like wtf you doing ... Chrome already take your data from the browser ... Why i need to put little popup ... If you don't want to be track special browser exist for that.
Please add GDPR pop up only in region that the laws demand it pleaaassseee
