    And the EU has forced us to answer that goddamn “do you accept cookies?” question on every frigging website. How many people just click “accept all” to get on with things?

      THAT IS A BIG FAT LIE! The EU did not force any such thing. The EU simply said that people’s data cannot be used without consent. This is the website asking for consent.

      Website developers have a perfectly valid choice not to collect any data. They chose their profits above your privacy.

      I have a website and I don’t have a popup asking for consent, because I don’t need to, because I don’t collect any data.
