Agree. GDPR and programmatic ads are totally incompatible.

I believe this is intentional on part of the EU.

Basically anything that hurts American tech companies is intentional on the part of the EU. That's why they're keeping both eyes shut on the plethora of violations many European companies are doing.

You have to report the violating companies. There are no government organizations actively looking for violations.

The American companies are simply bigger target and have the attention of more people, so their reported more quickly.

Name and shame. List the EU companies that are shitting on user privacy the way Google, Twitter, and Facebook currently are.
