of course not, it was an example to demonstrate the difference and easier to include one link for both definitions than e.g. two for each from a dictionary

slightly reworded first question but yes, I do, thanks
that seems a good example for a better source which actually bolsters my point on bad sources, but alas, it's irrelevant. note that it refers to personal data and not (third time lucky) the original argument concerning tracking consent. in fact, I cannot even find any personal data in the OP's URL, probably because no personal data is required to create a GitHub account. let's just ignore that one for now
