The GDPR covers the intent and processing of the data rather than any specific technical means - it's not limited to cookies. Please see my other comment: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30964163 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30964163
- contravariant 5y agoI don't think the GDPR mandates cookie banners at all, but somehow I'm still subjected to them. Most of them don't (explicitly) ask to collect my data, they just ask if they can use cookies.
