I think this is fairly commonly understood in the UK/Europe at least where they tend to mandate this rubbish. Surely the law should just state that Necessary only is the default... On some sites you have to drag 10s-100s of sliders to turn off all of the optional cookies. This is a good way of knowing a site I don't want to visit!
- dcminter 1y agoI'd be much happier if the rule was: necessary for functionality only, no action required. Anything else must be an active choice. I'd eliminate the "legitimate interest" category as it's so heavily abused. In practice I have third party cookies disabled in my browser and most things still work fine - random exceptions though (the SAS airline website being a particularly annoying one). If you care about these things consider joining noyb.eu
