Shortly after I received Google’s request for reviewing the new Google Analytics data processing terms for the GDPR, I read Jesse Squires’ post about him removing Google Analytics from his site. This led me to ask the same questions as Jesse, and Ash Furrow who also asked himself whether he should be collecting data on visitors of his blog. I have no better answers to these questions then they have.

Instead of accepting the new GDPR data processing terms, I simply deleted my account — as of today codemuse.co is not using Google Analytics anymore.
