Bei mir steht im Online-Banking seit Jahren drin, dass die zu irgendwas eine Zustimmung wollen und bisher hat mir noch niemand erklärt, warum ich diese geben wollen sollte.
Also ich glaube, irgendwo steht pauschal drin, dass sie die Geschäftsbeziehung evtl. abbrechen müssen, wenn man so eine Zustimmung nicht gibt, aber halte ich DSGVO-mäßig für schwierig.Und würde ja auch erwarten, dass man zumindest irgendeinen Finger lupft, um mich da nochmal darauf hinzuweisen, wenn das irgendeine Relevanz hätte.

Haha wow, my initial thought after reading your post was "signatures went away", but then I figured I'm biased towards that being significant, because I recently was on an ancient forum that still had them.
So, instead I tried to formulate the more abstract development. I had read about it a long time ago, so I did not pull that whole comment out of my arse just then, thankfully.
But that it is then precisely signatures which elicit a reaction, that's hilarious. 😅
And yeah, I do not miss signatures. Within minutes of reading on that forum, I had grown a disdain for some users, because they'd respond with half a sentence and then a distracting GIF in their signature. And of course, they would respond multiple times to a topic, so you could get 10+ instances of that same GIF on one page.
Unfortunately, this does mean I now need to demonstrate that by including a shitty signature:
I'm not a signature, I just clean here.
