Does the GDPR define what the default behavior should be when the user refuses to specify? Does it vary by site? Is it like clicking either “Accept all” or “Reject all”?

    What functionality do they ensure? I understand web games and webapps, but like any website now has cookies

      Sometimes people store simple data, like a boolean, in it.

      When I tried to make a website with some funny functions everything I read said to store data in cookies.

      There’s many reasons, site specific settings like selecting a language or if a certain popup message been dismissed by the user so it’s not shown again. Sorting settings, dark/light mode or what stage of the signup process the user is at.

      Altough I agree many aren’t a necessity and could be eliminated by better software design.
