Why should any company acquiesce to a contemptible organization that ruined the web with useless cookie nag screens and is hellbent on banning encryption?
The EU has done severe damage to the security of the web by training users to click accept on nag screens like the EU-required cookie popups (83% click accept).
- necovek 4mo agoEU has exposed that web site operators care little for a good user experience and will take user tracking (external, non-required cookies) over it — and as you say, 83% of customers also do not care. It is perfectly possible to construct web pages with no cookie consent nag screens. The fact that we accept nag screen reality is where the law has failed.
- calgoo 4mo agosure the EU is the problem of the web, no the horrible corporations sucking up every little piece of personal information they can to sell it. I feel so sorry for the suffering you have experiences while having to click "i accept", even when thats not even a requirement of the EU, just a sign of the horrible practices of the giant (mostly American) corporations.
