That’s not really Forbes serving the malvertising intentionally. If your site hooks into a programmatic advertising stack, the risk of malware exists.
This is from 2016, but it’s mostly true today. If a user is blocking ads and cookies and they disable their ad blocker on a specific site only, there’s little data to know about that user. So you get low $CPM on the bid which is mainly where the malicious ads win bids on actual quality sites.
That’s why most top sites are very strict on who can bid nowadays.

I don’t see how it could be enforced without this. If you are operating internationally, comply or block your service from regions you cannot legally operate in.

Personally I don’t think Lemmy should comply. It’s an ad free community service with zero PII obligation besides an email and whatever IP you choose to connect from. No one has to be on Lemmy for any common social obligations.

If you want to be forgotten then leave!

too real. I must do this at least once a month.

Imagining a returning user who previously consented. If non essential cookies changed since their last visit, that user needs to consent again. But in scenario, just auto opt them out?
I’m weirdly on the fence between this might be a reasonable block or a violation of GDPR for denying access to users who do not provide consent.
