Data protection officers in federal and state governments want the operators of Internet sites to renounce the use of Google Analytics.

Penalties could go up to €50,000 (about $75,000) which is far more expansive than most paid web analytics tools licences.

What about rejecting cookies?

Isn’t it a war against Google more than Google Analytics itself?
