Thanks for flagging, have shared the feedback with the team.

For me, this isn’t an issue of feedback, it’s an issue of culture. Does the company do the right thing?

Wise does this properly which makes me trust them straight away.

Edit. Don’t want to come off too harsh, just saying the cookie approach doesn’t help me trust the company compared to the main competitor.

How did you not know this? Makes me think you missed a lot more behind the scenes.

No one is perfect my friend. A user pointed out a potential issue in the UK with cookies and a person from the company responded saying they’ve made a team aware.

What else would you expect? The amount of flack people get they post a Show HN is getting out of control.

It's not "a potential issue in the UK" it's an issue across the EU - they were pointing out it's also an issue in the UK even though we've left the EU.

GDPR is not a new or surprising thing, and the absolute basics should be known by any developers working with private data. It's frankly shocking if they didn't know while starting a company in the UK, and I don't know if it's worse if they didn't know or didn't care.

This is a business that it will be vital that they are following regulations, and if they're skipping this, why should I trust they're following the rest?
