> cookie consent pop-up The second you call it a pop-up it's just more hell, should just be a browser setting that has to be abided by. No popup, no constantly asking me for consent. I should consent once, ONCE!

The biggest browser manufacturer is not interested in making it easy to opt out of tracking cookies for some reason, wonder why that is…

  They're literally working on a feature to disable third party coookies by default: https://blog.google/products/chrome/privacy-sandbox-tracking-protection/ https://blog.google/products/chrome/privacy-sandbox-tracking... How does that fit in with your conspiracy theorizing?

A browser setting would be binary - yes or no. A per site consent dialog, with per "partner" option, with easy to use "Decline all" / "Allow all" buttons, is much more granular. Maybe you're OK with a random community website "tracking" you because you know it makes them more money from ads; but you're not OK with Meta tracking you across the whole web.

  Other settings are per site and this one can be as well - you can select "reject all", "accept all" (or "reject non-essential") and be done with that... or use "ask each time" like with mic/camera and there would be small, tiny, browser-ui pop-up in usual place...

> should just be a browser setting that has to be abided by It should be a browser setting that is enforced by the browser. If I open something in private mode, or use the multi-account containers extension (Firefox), cookies are isolated or forgotten without any involvement from the remote party. The site doesn't need to know or care.
