It's like piracy, there's only so much you can do plugging holes
Cookie banners always felt like a feel-good solution. Made worse by inconsistent UIs, differing button texts, long explanations, etc.

When you make a law and bad actors find loopholes, the solution isn't to throw up your hands and say "Well, we tried!" The solution is to continuously refine the law as loopholes are found. Laws should get regular patch releases.
- dmix 2y agoYes that seems to standard practice in modern government. Impose a series of ineffective rules that do more harm on the public than helps them, and when it fails just invent new ones without considering why the last one failed. And most importantly don't get rid of the previous rules, just let them stick around a decade after it's been apparent they were ineffective.
