- warpech 7y agoIt works for DuckDuckGo: https://duckduckgo.com/ https://duckduckgo.com/ However it won't work for any site that uses client log in.
- ceejayoz 7y agoI don’t think login cookies require the banners.
- brlewis 7y agoI think you're right: https://law.stackexchange.com/a/32157 https://law.stackexchange.com/a/32157
- the8472 7y agoYou only need to set a cookie when the user logs in. So as long as the user isn't logged in or in the process of logging in there's no need for a banner.
- TeMPOraL 7y agoYou only need a banner if you use cookies for tracking. If all your cookie does is enable the login form, you don't need the banner. That's the "one weird trick" TFA describes.
- TomMarius 7y agohow many startups are comparable to DuckDuckGo?
- ceejayoz 7y agoLet’s not assume most businesses ever use the reams of tracking data they collect just because “it’s what’s done”.
- yunruse 7y agoDo businesses really need cookies? Surely logging page visits is enough for most purposes; it can be corroborated with sign-ins if you have already agreed to sign up. Anything else is usually for tracking, usually the intrusive thought. Businesses don’t have an inherent right to your data. There’s countless bans on much more nefarious practices that “didn’t work” at the time.
