These consent forms are such a sabotage on the original idea. The idea being, as far as i remember, you set your preferences once. In a container on your machines under your control. Then the site and the container negotiate. Either the side is willing to accept your preferences - or it denies showing to you - or presents you a "negotiated" down version. No clicking. No visible banners. No large forms and lawyer legalese. Just a privacy level setting for the web via standardized API. Europe at least tried but dropped the ball.
