Thanks to some bureaucrats on EU now all the world has to deal with the stupid cookie banners everywhere.
- petepete 6y agoThanks to some scummy advertising tactics*
- ncallaway 6y agoI, as an American, am extremely thankful for the latest version of cookie banners. Yes, the first version of cookie banners was awful and pointless. This latest iteration (of compliant banners) is wonderful, though. They actually give me functionality that I _really want_. I click the "manage preferences" option on every single one for every site that offers it. I opt out of everything except for strictly necessary cookies for site functionality. I am genuinely thankful for the GDPR era of cookie banners.
- MereInterest 6y agoNo, it's thanks to targeted advertising. GDPR banners are completely unnecessary if you don't stalk your users. Stick to traditional advertising, and you don't need to remove user privacy, and therefore don't need to have any banner.
- loloquwowndueo 6y agoUse a “I don’t care about cookies” browser extension. Deal with it once, and then never again.
- simion314 6y agoDon't this website detect you are not in EU and don't bother you with any popup? From EU I see the reverse where the websites will detect I am EU and refuse to work. Also you should be able to click on the GIANT button on the popup and never see it again. I bet you also complain that thx to some other bureaucrats now all your marketing emails must include an Unsubscribe link.
