We already have granular permissions for other things (like location queries) and it works out just fine. You allow things when they make sense and refuse when they don't. It could be resolved in a way that preserves usability, but still achieves a goal not tracking non-users via ads. I doubt that it would make PG particularly happy though.
- foldr 3y agoThe key difference with tracking is that it's based on intent. Technically there is no difference between a tracking cookie and any other cookie. It is just a question of its intended use.
- exitb 3y agoSure. If I'm asking a website to remember my user session, I expect and am happy to allow a cookie, even if it's a few extra clicks. When I visit a site I'm not a registered user of, no tracking is needed really.
- foldr 3y agoThe issue isn't cookies vs. no cookies; it's tracking cookies vs. other cookies. Session cookies in and of themselves do not require consent.
