If there was a browser setting to accept (or reject) all cookies regardless of intended use, that would actually solve the problem for many. Just because many people want to make case by case decisions, we shouldn't have to burden everyone with this task.
I personally would prefer to accept all cookies, and take responsibility for keeping separate cookie jars as needed.
- AnssiH 6y agoYeah, I'd like a Please-Track-Me option that auto-accepts everything.
- Macha 6y agoHere you go: https://www.i-dont-care-about-cookies.eu/ https://www.i-dont-care-about-cookies.eu/ I'd rather something that auto-rejected, so I don't use it, but it exists.
- Nemo157 6y ago> In most cases, it just blocks or hides cookie related pop-ups. This bit is actually the opposite. All tracking _must_ be opt-in, therefore by blocking the pop-up and not opting-in the website cannot track you. It's only for the websites which are broken when not opting-in that it accepts the policy (which AIUI is itself a violation of the GDPR).
- TheCoelacanth 6y agoThere should be a Please-Track-Me option that anyone who wants to be tracked can send. The lack of the header should indicate that the user denied consent to be tracked.

- littlecranky67 6y agoAs I said, there are hundreds of other ways to fingerprint you. If the number of users who block tracking cookies reaches a critical mass, advertisers would switch to those.

- mortehu 6y agoWhat you're talking about doesn't describe my problem. My only problem is that sites spend any time at all asking about cookies or tracking, which I can control on my end anyway.
- TheCoelacanth 6y agoYou can't. You can control cookies. You can't control tracking.
