Seriously. I see comments like this all the time but no examples.

Just the idea that a developer would care so much to create something like “If user doesn’t consent, ruin their experience”.

Wouldn’t really matter for most sites hosted in America. American businesses do not have to comply unless they have EU customers.

International sites like YouTube absolutely has some system that will switch the cookie tracking depending on geo location, from CCPA to GDPR.

But American sites don’t really gaf. Small News site in America, unless they’re paying for a fancy Cookie Consent Management tool, is doing it the US way and it’s opt out, regardless of where you’re coming from.

For example: if Kansas News site gets a warning from the EU about cookies, they’re not going to care. They don’t have the budget, and honestly, easier to just block all IPs from outside the US.

If you hate this, stop using American products and services. (And I say this as a privacy concerned American)

In the US, it’s the opposite. The way the law is written, you have to OPT out. So they’re collecting the moment you land.

I’ve set up a bunch of these cookie banners for US businesses. You can choose if you follow the EU version, or the CCPA version.

Absolutely this.

2010s was a wild west of downloading multi pack codecs BS. Just let me play the video!

I watched this movie 3-4 times and even when reading this, I’m still spaced out.

Ben Stein just has a voice that makes me tune him out.

Such a great voice for comedy. Shame he’s anti-abortion, pretty racist, pro-Regan and Trump, weirdly against evolution… So many awful perspectives.

Jedi religion rose dramatically from 1900 to today.

I and a bunch of coworkers are already de googling/finding alternatives.
