The EU has been on fire lately with these tech laws. I'm honestly impressed.

Same. As much as I hate the cookie dialog hellscape they inadvertently spawned (and probably need to follow up on with some additional legislation) I would much rather live under their tech laws than the garbage ones in my country.

I don't mind the cookie dialogs. It takes two seconds to get rid of them.

Use the I don't Care about Cookies extension, it block the most of this crap https://www.i-dont-care-about-cookies.eu (For all browsers) Or download the filterlist for Adblock+ or uBO https://www.i-dont-care-about-cookies.eu/abp/ (not as effective as the extension)

I really wished I lived in Europe.

This is why I prefer EU soft and services, way better than any other in privacy and user rights.

Chrome OS next hopefully. Imagine the software release of shame that Google has to do allowing Firefox on an OS explicitly built around Chromium.
