Thanks for you quick response! I was thinking what use this particular pop up has because basically it would not hold up for GDPR, so...

I always wonder; why use evil tech to begin with? So why not avoid it not to please some regulator, but just because it's not needed? Use Plausible for analytics, don't embed Youtube, don't use Recaptcha, no adsense, (feel the google...) etc... What else needs to track/spy on your users that you need when not using dark patterns for this type of application? If you don't use any of it and just put a cookie for necessary purposes, you don't need any banner/popup at all.
