Every time you press except a cookie, your data is brokered by hundreds. Often you cannot reject all cookies, because 'essential'. 

In this case you will not even have a reject button. The money to fund this has to come from somewhere.

You are not telling me anything I do not know, what I am saying is why would Law makers and corporations need a law to get your data when there are so many ways that data is already giving out and freely sold between corporations already.  Why institute something that bring focus to something they already get for free with no effort.  

If they wanted to have easy access to your data, then instead of making laws, they would just deregulate instead.  Much easier to deregulate and allow unfettered tracking of individuals online than making some obscure law based on children access to adult content.

Because it's not just winning on one topic. The government wins because more control (a.k.a. we know best what is good for you). Corporations win because making money. implementing and sustaining a government mandate like this is not gratis. There is a business model here. And guess what. As a gamer you will be paying one way or the other.
