They should not be. That there is people willing to give their data to big corporations and foreign countries by extension puts everybody at risk. It is a matter of national security and it should not be allowed, no opt in option.

Woof. How about we let users decide, thanks.

Are they deciding with full understanding of what does it mean to accept such terms or are they just "accepting" to stop being bothered with pop ups.

The industry loves to give people "a choice" when they know that the average user can be coerced to accept anything.

That is not a real choice, and it should be illegal. User profiling is a crime and should be treated as such.
