   Wow, #Vice, that's an absolute shitshow of a "#privacy consent screen." 🤦♀️

   It seems designed *specifically* to trick people to consent to things they might not want to. 👀

   Settings in "User Consent" tab are "off", but there is a "Legitimate Interest" tab with the same settings turned on? The "User Consent" tab is displayed by default. It's easy for someone to think "oh, that's off, good" and hit "Save & Exit." 🙄

   Obnoxious, manipulative dark pattern and a malicious (mis)implementation of GDPR! 😠
