Yep, all the EU done is forced websites to have consent if the website want to process personal data. There are many analytics that does not process IP address or fingerprint and so does not require consent banner. Be annoyed on the websites, not this law.

And yet we live in a world where consent spam is actually harder to deal with than tracking, if you're smart.
