I find the "cookie disaster" a great outcome. This little bit of friction is great at letting everyone know the price for the loss of privacy.

- mft_ 5y agoI don’t think it achieves that, though. I strongly doubt that one in a million people clicking on that button think about the privacy implications. However, the cumulative frustration and time wasted by that button is probably quite large, across the world.
- lotu 5y agoNo it just creates alert blindness. Most people barely understand what a cookie is. I was part of a team implementing cookie banners, and we were looking really hard for the best wording. But it didn’t matter because in user tests 75% of users were unable to tell us what was in the box. Most assumed it was an ad before reflexively closing it.
