    Some states do have at least something, Virginia and California that I know of. We aren’t Europeans though to gdpr doesn’t apply to us, we just get tangential benefits from companies who don’t want to have two ways of doing things depending upon if you’re in Europe or not. If all those websites that added opt in cookie boxes to their websites and whatnot wanted to strip all that out and serve special pages to Europeans they could.
