For people who are not aware, if you write the value no in YAML, it parses it as the boolean false which is then usually converted back to the string "false". The solution is to write "no" and not no, but Norway is the only country code requiring this so a lot of people forget about it. For example I noticed this week that an environment variable in a few of my Norwegian company's deployments was "false" and not "no"…
Syntax highlighting to the rescue! I’ve almost been bitten by that “feature” before, but the VS Code extension for YAML caught it.

Worst case they could block your site, but that's not going to happen. Note that if it is a personal website you are not subject to GDPR. GDPR only applies to companies and organizations. Also note that most stuff that a layperson would say is reasonable for a website to function isn't a problem in GDPR.
> most stuff that a layperson would say is reasonable for a website to function isn't a problem in GDPR. Except revenue of course.
These were the norm in advertising until like 2005.

> but they implement GDPR The GDPR is great for the citizens! My wish is that more countries follow the EU and implement similar and compatible laws. An interesting example of this is that the UK made sure to implement a clone of GDPR in UK law before leaving the EU/EEA.
As a private citizen, I love GDPR. As someone responsible for implementations, I hate it.
I've implemented PCIDSS and SOX several times which was much easier, because there is implemantation documentation and everyone knows what to do.
