Tired of misleading cookie banners? The EU Commission has finally proposed a solution: set your privacy preferences in the browser once, and never see another banner. Unfortunately, the tracking industry is pushing back – and so far, they’ve been successful. We need YOUR help to #KillTheCookieBanner!
I am not against cookie banners, I own a few web apps and each of them have proper configurable cookie settings (including the banner).
All I am saying is that most companies (especially one’s that do not reside in EU) do not care and will track you across websites by fingerprinting your hardware when visiting their website. Some do not even use cookies at all.
Configurable cookie settings are not “proper.” Unconfigurable eschewing of not-strictly-functional cookies is “proper.”
Don’t delude yourself into thinking your malicious compliance is “proper!”
My web apps lack any telemetry, the only cookies that get set are for sessions, users settings and various redux like storage on client side which can be opted out. It’s more than proper. :)
