Cause of death: the autopsy

The rules couldn't be checked against any official machine-readable source, so every row would be legal interpretation. The consent-management companies already own the space.

The numbers

None. It was never built, so there are no visitors, sales or ad spend to count. It died on paper, which is the cheapest place to die.

Could rise again if

The report left no way back.
