Yes, big chance this will make things shittier, just like the EU's cookie law. The US ought to take some protectionist measures and punish the EU for this.

- piva00 3y agoWebsites are not required to show a cookie consent if they don't track you, tracking makes the web much shittier than a banner telling you that your privacy is being commercialised. Maybe shift a bit your mindset, complain about the right thing and not the one thing giving you some power against shitty behaviour.

- onion2k 3y agoThe cookie law resulted in an annoying popup on lots of websites, which is definitely tiresome, but it also means that major companies actually need to think about what cookies a user has to accept in order to use their website. Accepting ones marked "Strictly Necessary" while rejecting all the others (which has to be an option under the Cookie law) means you aren't tracked by first or third parties (if the site is compliant) because tracking isn't necessary for sites to operate. There's at least some upside to the cookie banners.
