 Hi @desrosj,

 Yes, that is true. But I believe a lot of people have chatbots and other
 privacy related banners as well on their wordpress sites. As you can see
 in the screenshot, the sidebar widget editor is practically unusable for
 those (like me) who do. Just thought I should point it out. Maybe other
 widgets coders will make change to their widgets to adapt to this in the
 future.

 WordPress 5.8. WordPress Core does not have a GDPR banner, or a chat
 assistant built in, so these features are likely added in plugins or your
 current theme.
