We care about your privacy which is why we are sharing your date with almost 1000 services 998 of which are fully redundant and only 1 is actually needed for the service we provide

lmao I love when they say "we care about your privacy" then they go on to say exactly how much data they're gonna collect and process

Well, technically they do care about your privacy if your privacy is annoying to them and they wish it was gone.

[โ€“] jkrtn@lemmy.ml 11 points 10 months ago

We care about your privacy! We can get a buck or two for it.

Legitimate interests don't require a banner. The simple fact you see a banner means their lawyers know they couldn't convince the dumbest judge that they actually need that stuff.
