If you don't want my cookie, feel free to not use my website which is provided to you free of charge (and ironically, if it was not free you would definitely need to accept the cookie). It does me no good to provide you a service when I can't monetize it.
I don't understand the sense of entitlement. The result is annoying, but that's because of the poorly thought out law. If you don't want annoyed, use this extension.
- rmc 14y agoThe law doesn't work that way. If the law says "you must gain users consent before storing things on their computer", then "well if you don't like it, don't visit my site" is not an acceptable legal defence.
- jonknee 14y agoOf course, the point was no I will not let you access my content before you decide about a cookie. The OP finds having to make this decision to be annoying and thinks the site should just not set any cookies.
- watt 14y agoI guess if you are putting some service out there, you actually WANT people viewing your content/using the service. Way to antagonize your potential customers which such "my way or the highway" attitude! And how do you feel about the 'Do not track' header?
- jonknee 14y agoWhat if the service comes with accepting a cookie? A potential "customer" that does not accept cookies is simply a waste of bandwidth. Not a big fan of DNT, it relies on trust which prevents it from working when you want it to most. If you don't want tracked, don't accept cookies. If you can't use a service without cookies and are not happy using something like Incognito mode, stop using that service.
