Blaming harassment on the law seems a bit strange, it's the website doing it because it wants have your data, not because it is obliged to ask you about it. Not collecting data is an option too, but it seems not to these websites.

- janc_ 7y agoThere is no 1:1 relationship between cookies and data collection (they can collect data about you without cookies, and cookies are often used for legitimate & useful purposes).
