Ultimately the only cookie an users will willingly accept is the sessionid/rememberme. And the "remember me" checkbox is consent enough under the GDPR. Behing all the legalese and marketing-speach, all the other purposes boils down to : - We are too lazy to setup a matomo, so we are giving google your browsing pattern. - FB is forcing us, so we can pay ever so slightly less for ads - Google is offering to tell us your sex and age - If we dont track you, we will show you a viagra ad. - Through 4 intermediaries, we can pay this totaly-objective-blog which sent you here. I'd love to hear from someone with a complex cookie consent pop-up, but i'd bet there is about 80% "accept all" (because the users have been trained to do it) 19% "reject all", and no-one is mixed. So the do-not-track would have been accurate enough.
