So when will we be able to delete hacker news accounts?
- hombre_fatal 7y agoProbably the same time HN gets a "this site has cookies" popup.
- Nextgrid 7y agoWhy would HN need one? HN only uses a session cookie, placed when you log in, which falls under legitimate interest (as there's no other way to provide their service overall). I wish the idea that all cookies require disclosure would die. Cookies don't require disclosure per-se. Stalking and tracking, regardless of method (whether it's a cookie, a token in the URL, in local storage, browser fingerprinting, etc) requires consent - cookies for functional purposes (hint: stalking doesn't count) don't require consent.
