That doesn't sound realistic. There are real fines for non compliance and it's trivial to find out what cookies you have.

You usually first get an injunction with some time to fix the issue, little risk of immediate fines.

So there is little reason to implement a working consent dialog unless you get a legal notice to do so. When the law came out we got a lot of such notices over the lack of the dialog, but after a usless dialog was implemented, it stopped.

Guess lawyers aren't that tech savy or have better things to do.
