 Today I encountered a problem on translate.wordpress.org, caused by gtm.js
 I am not aware of the fact that this site does send information without my
 consent. The reason I found that, because gtm.js causes an error under
 certain circumstances.
 Now I do have the following problems with this.
 1. I have never given consent to sent information to Google.
 2. It is not possible to disable this behavior.
 3. The problem seems to be caused by a recent change made by Google for
 Google Analytics. The tag has been changed. The only solution currently is
 to remove the code from the site, or use an add blocker.
 4. No consent box is shown when entering translate.wordpress.org. So this
 is illegal behaviour in my opinion.
 5. When do we get the option to disable this behavior?
