I see what you are saying but still I think there should be a machine readable format that browsers can parse and display in a unified way. For cookies it should work as I described. For advanced fingerprinting techniques that need to be disclosed that could be done via an additional plain text which is just rendered by the browser, still in a unified way. Then future browsers could detect/block even some advanced fingerprinting but check for an explanation (eg in /.well-known/privacy.txt) and present the user with a choice. I just do not get way the website itself has a say in how to display the constent prompt at all (it needs to be accessible, should be readble and dismissable without javascript, actually I would want to be able to read it before visiting the website). Currently I can not even get a list of all websites of which I accepted any agreement with not to mention re-reading any of those consent texts.
