## On Shopware, cookie management exists — but it signals nothing

That's the trap everyone misses. Shopware has native cookie management: groups, categories, a clean banner. **But it manages locally and transmits nothing to Google.** Consent Mode v2 isn't a checkbox — it's a wiring job.

## A banner that blocks nothing is an exhibit for the prosecution

If your GTM is already firing while the banner is on screen, the banner documents your breach rather than preventing it. And it documents it _well_: you knew the rule.

## And the three rules that actually get sanctioned

No tracker before consent. Refusing as easy as accepting. The proof, stored. Everything else is cosmetic — those three decide the fine.
