A lot of info is outdated. And naturally I will ensure consent is gained, like I do for all other external cookies and info.

Quoting: LoudTechieBy actively mentioning the option of content blockers and informing users you might be able to argue that you got user consent.

There's no way in the netherworld that mentioning it in an easily missed forum thread is anywhere near the required informed consent. It'll need to be in the form of a traditional "cookie banner" or something similar.

I'm curious, though, whether google analytics automatically respects the "do not track" browser setting. I suspect not, but it'd be a welcome surprise.

Again, consent for anything will be done the same as other sites.

This post was just to inform people on future stuff, but now we're just getting silly so locking.

As a reminder: GOL is not a charity, it is a business, and I will do what I must to keep it going and at times it will be things some don't like.
