Aloin miettimään statistiikkatyökaluja omalle sivulle. Ei sillä, että haluaisin tietää kaikista kaiken. Lähinnä kiinnostaisi se käykö siellä kukaan ajan saatossa. Wordpress lisäosien hakemistosta heti kärkeen suositeltiin statistiikkatyökaluja missä tiedot pysyvät omissa käsissä. Tämä vaikuttaisi hyvältä vaihtoehdolta. Ei esimerkiksi Googlen tarvitse tietää tämän sivun statistiikkoja. Täytyy jatkaa mietintöjä.

Continued thread

One thing I want to be 100% clear on about this: they are NOT required to do a tracking popup. They want you to believe that they are so you'll be angry and demand that privacy laws go away.

Specifically, they are required to ask permission before using tracking. They could... just not use tracking by default, then they don't have to ask. There literally could just not be a popup at all and the site would be legal -- if it just simply didn't track you.
