GDPR is a General Data Protection Regulation. It applies to everything.

10 years. It's been in force for 10 years. The tracking/ad industry has really managed to brainwash everyone into thinking it's about cookies (even though GDPR doesn't even mention cookies except as an example of tracking)

There is the ePrivacy directive as well, which mentions cookies (as a representative example), and I think it requires user consent in cases where GDPR doesn't.

ePrivacy is now mostly about the requirement to notify the user that cookies are set, and what they are used for. But you are correct: https://gdpr.eu/cookies/
