      @Edent I found one the other day claiming only 6 ... Google, LinkedIn, Microsoft, Meta, IBM, Cloudflare. Then I tried to register an account, and they requested KYC via Persona. I had to email their support team to get them to delete the account in the end, because I couldn't do it myself ... So does that count as "over 1000"? 🙂

          @Edent a lowly 931 here, but then this is my TV where I typically wouldn’t expect an awful lot of tracking…

              @Edent is there a law that says you have to give a number? If so, it seems like a bizarre requirement (I might want to know specifically who my data is being shared with, but I care not how many). If not, why do they do it?

                  @steve @Edent it's part of the https://iabeurope.eu/transparency-consent-framework/ so everyone who implements that flow ends up doing it

                      @Edent horrifying. But what is "legitimate interest" as distinct from other interest. I decline 'normal' cookies and then have to decline legitimate interest separately. The only legitimate interest I can ever think of might be the original website, and even then ...

                          @Edent looking at that I see many of these partners might claim legitimacy but I think many claims would clearly be very weak

                              Attached: 1 image Have been noticing cookie pop ups with increasing and increasing numbers of "partners". This one is the new record I came across today. Beating the previous by 12. How the fuck does an organisation even properly vet 1637 partners to make sure they aren't evil? At least there's a reject all option. Anyone found a higher number of partners on a cookie pop up?

                                  @Edent uBlock stopped counting after it reached 1,000. can't remember which site exactly, i was in such shock, but i think it was for the Vogue Mag website.

                                      @Edent more importantly, WTF is ‘legitimate interest’?

                                      Like, at the most basic level, shouldn’t all requests for data be based ok a ‘legitimate interest’?

                                          @ttmevans @Edent https://ico.org.uk/for-organisations/uk-gdpr-guidance-and-resources/lawful-basis/legitimate-interests/what-is-the-legitimate-interests-basis/
                                          And maybe they should, but 'consent' is another legal basis for data collection, which is why bad sites make consent easy and refusal clunky.
