I work as a Data Protection Officer, which is a legal role under GDPR, and am rather unimpressed by GPC. I could whine for a day, but among the most problematic issues: It's not clear if "Sec-GPC: 0" should be interpreted as:

1. "no" to collect personal data under GDPR consent; or 2. "objection" to collect personal data under GDPR legitimate interest or; 3. "no" to retrieving and storing data on a user device (e.g. cookies, localStorage); or 4. A linear combination of the above.

Personally, I think we should simply fine the heck out of all websites until they all feature a "Reject all" button. No need for browser vendors to propose standard which at least one browser vendor can't be bothered to implement.
