I wish they's update the ePrivacy directive :) --- I think, but don't quote me in that, that with ePrivacy you don't really need a banner, but an explanation

I wish they's update the ePrivacy directive :) --- I think, but don't quote me in that, that with ePrivacy you don't really need a banner, but an explanation that you use cookies. But that is a minor issue

I think there is an update being discussed? Away from my desk but will look in a bit

  I saw this discussed in my Twitter feed today, so second-third-hand account is that the update has been in the works for almost a decade, being fought tooth and nail by the same companies that fight any other privacy initiative. Hearsay and rumors, so don't take this seriously

    Ah yeah, this is what I came across earlier when looking for the full 2002 text: "Proposal for a REGULATION OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL concerning the respect for private life and the protection of personal data in electronic communications and repealing Directive 2002/58/EC (Regulation on Privacy and Electronic Communications)" But it's from 2017... https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?darkschemeovr=0&safesearch=moderate&setlang=en-GB&ssp=1&uri=CELEX%3A52017PC0010 https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?darkschemeov... (If the twitter discussion was interesting, any suggested accounts to follow for this sort of topic?)
