It is embarrassing that probably you are not aware on how ironic and stupid your comment is, since the web was started at CERN https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H

so you might want to update your limited general knowledge or comment only on topics you really know what you are talking about. You see cookies because
1 the website wants to track you
2 the website ad-partners want to track you
3 the web developers are idiots and don't know that non-tracking cookies don't need a NAG popup
BTW GDPR is more then cookies, it is applied in real life too. Also it has benefits like forcing websites to implement a delete my account functionality too.
- maccolgan 5y agoSaying the web started at CERN is about as much intelligent as saying the internet was originally a US military communications network.
- CRConrad 5y agoBut nobody here denied that the US military has contributed to the Internet we're using for this very discussion. Someone did, however, claim that "GDPR cookies are the EU's only contribution to the WWW!", either ignoring or ignorant of the fact that the Web was invented at the EU-funded (and -founded?) CERN. So your equivalence is invalid.
