You just tell Congress that the data brokers have all the rights to sell our data to Chinese data brokers. Maybe that will change their mind.

The EU was pretty successful with mandating cookie banners and GDPR.

On the other hand, I think a great firewall would be useful to the US and especially the EU, to be able to enforce their laws even better.

"mandating cookie banners and GDPR."

this is only works if your business located in EU, no one stop EU people visit US site and still get tracked

I'm not pretty sure about that. I get cookie banners from US companies all the time and choose to reject them.

Just visited www.vmware.com. Site is located in the US. Company is located in USA, and OneTrust's cookie banner welcomed me, and allows me to make choices.

VMware wants to sell to European clients. If they didn’t they wouldn’t have cookie banners.

If you market your services to EU residents, the EU will hold you subject to the GDPR (and many other EU Regulations) irrespective of your location.
