> What the law currently happens to be is irrelevant to the question what it should be.

I advise you to take a civics course. This is literally not true.

> Please tell me how those pop-ups reflect a design flaw in the GDPR.

In short: GDPR failed to correct the incentives and lead just to more boilerplate disclaimers. Some of GDPR is good, but this part definitely isn't.

> It's a version of Office.

Yeah... That's the definition of a niche product. Because, it's targeted at niche audience.

Honestly, I'm not interested of arguing with you anymore. When people start throwing platitudes against facts, that's the time I lose interest.

It would be easier if you explained to me how this possibly can be not true.

The incentives people think the GDPR sets are obviously broken but what about the ones it actually does set as written? The law is fine, the enforcement is disappointing so far.

If Office is targeted at a niche audience then everything is a niche audience.
