Cookie warnings are an indicator showing that a website takes part in a global spying network. But I think instead of warnings browser developers should just disable third-party cookies by default. Sadly, the most popular browser developer by conicidence owns a popular tracking service so that is not going to happen.

- lewiseason 10y agoYeah, good point. I couldn't recall if it was third-party cookies, or if it were tracking cookies that the requirement stated.
