Wow, this is going to be amazing and not totally useless like how everything in California is known to cause cancer these days.

Seriously. It's like there is zero political will to meaningfully regulate companies, so politicians think that performative labeling is some kind of half way compromise. I wouldn't be surprised if this NY law is similarly broken to the CA one where the government doesn't even take a stand as to what is considered harmful, just leaving it up to the corpos to choose - for which they will just maximally plaster the label on everything because "fuck you".

Another thing to add to the uBlock filters alongside the cookie banners. Can't wait to wade through a dozen regulatory warnings to visit a website if you don't block it all.
