I like this. After it rolls out, can we quit with those silly GPDR cookie messages? That always seemed like "a social solution for a technical problem", with all the jurisdictional and enforcement problems you would expect from one political body trying to legislate behavior worldwide.
Don't want to be tracked? It's your browser after all, just stop handing the trackers data!
- coldpie 6y agoNoScript mostly fixes those, and there's also this[1] if you want to try something less drastic. [1] https://www.i-dont-care-about-cookies.eu/ https://www.i-dont-care-about-cookies.eu/
- chrisan 6y agoThanks for this! I'm at a point where I am way more annoyed by cookie banners all over the place than whatever tracking is being done on me that I almost wanted to go back in time before GDPR, now I don't have to :)
