> Does not protect people (99% are just fake. If you reject cookies you keep get them) Fake cookie banners are illegal under the GDPR. Seriously, in what other aspects of life do people respond to terrible enforcement by saying the law is the problem? (Of course there exists a bunch of stupid laws that are also terribly enforced, but here the objective of the GDPR is not stupid – it's merely a matter of terrible enforcement) > Cost money to company (so cost to customers) Most regulation comes with a cost. The fact that this does, too, is kinda meaningless on its own. Food safety regulation comes at a cost – that, in itself, is not an argument against such regulation. > A simpler browser extension where you manage your preference once far all (default) with the possibility to personilize x site (think like you do for camera permission) would have solved the problem in a real way and without all the hussle. Are you seriously arguing that legislation to enforce such privacy standardization would be easier to enforce than the current GDPR? By all means, what you're proposing sounds great – better than the GDPR even – but massively harder to do.
