    No “legitimate interests” are the things they try to shove through anyway when you reject cookies. Typically you have to expand or click another tab to get the legitimate interest options.

    I’ve actually seen a petrol station with facial recognition cameras inside, they had a notice about using it for the purpose of theft provention, “alongside their legitimate interests”. This was on a little card next to the till, but there was no clear way to opt out, there was a QR code for more information but no specific instructions on how to refuse. Just by walking into the store they basically claim the right to use your likeness for the purpose of training AI or whatever.

    Yes, the issue is with web developers not following standards. However, because all of them fail to do this, the problem ends up being with the browser that doesn’t support everyone’s non-standard developments.

    I just want my text in the centre of the page (not with rows stretched across a widescreen monitor) and for things to not jump about as they load. Figure out where things should go, then display it.

    Lots of users gush over Discord for some reason. My impression is that more technically minded people don’t really like it, but your average user uses it for almost everything and encourages more services they like to use it. Hence why many reddit subs moved to Discord - the mods didn’t necessarily prefer it, but they were sent an overwhelming number of requests from their users.
