>The EU and their stupid cookie warning
Great in theory! Let people know what cookies are and the privacy implications.
Absolutely terrible in practice since any non-trivial site with user accounts will require cookies to use. It's as useful as the peanut warning on a package of peanuts (although at least that exists to save taxpayers money).
- lozenge 9y agoActually, sites that use cookies purely for necessary parts of the site don't need a cookie warning. Eg an add to cart button.
- Nadya 9y agoThere are a few categories of exceptions but again, I'd need to see an example of a non-trivial site that doesn't implement any kind of cookie that requires the warning and also doesn't have the warning "just-in-case". Any site large enough to have anyone with the title that includes "Marketing" on the payroll means they'll be using some form of analytics and will need the warning.
