The GDPR's cookie consent requirement is one of the dumbest, most annoying things to happen to the web since its inception. Nothing like out-of-touch burecrats 'just trying to help' to make thing worse.
- gingerlime 4y agoit’s mostly the ePrivacy directive, and it’s not dumb. It’s meant to protect your privacy if followed. Lots of companies however don’t actually follow it, and use dumb and misleading popups meant to trick you and cause you to agree out of fatigue and lazyness. If they don’t track you, there’s no need for popups of any kind. It’s entirely on them, not on the law. edit: I didn’t downvote you, but thought it’s worth responding.
