Welp Technically yes everywhere and it has been that way since the gdpr
Practically this is the number one reason for our nice "attention, do not resits, we are using cookies on your electronic machinery" popups.
For quite a few sites its the only cookie you actually accept.
Its a s**t show really. Every single client ever now needs to have a cookie popup because google is going to punish you in your rankings if you do not use their integrations too.
And if you do use their integrations... you need a popup.... and dont even get me started about "legitimate interest".
But this is the way... I opt out as much as I can and block through the router as well as ublock.
The most interesting thing that i noticed is that if you block third party cookies in safari on your phone, some sites will show you a blank screen. Timescale does this (I have reported this as a bug month ago but never received feedback).
Its an amazing feature by now:
- the page loads and you can see the content
- the page trys to show you the cookie popup
- since i dont have any cookies allowed, the script will just completly blank out my page
welp. welcome to the future. Its not neccesarily better, but I can see them all now, which i guess is at least a step in the right direction.

If true, they don't need to show the popup. > google is going to punish you in your rankings if you do not use their integrations too. If you have evidence of this it would be the basis of a massive antitrust case. (I'm not disagreeing and would not be too surprised, but - real evidence is thin unless you include the AMP carousel which is not technically part of "rankings".)
