    I mean, most companies still don’t abide by it tho. There’s lots of sites where you can accept all cookies or you have to jump through a few hoops to decline the non essential ones.

      Am I supposed to trust the company to correctly define ‘essential?’ Seems easy to weasel around and makes me nervous.

        It’s almost certainly going to be litigated at some point, so a court is going to define “essential”… eventually.

      I just open any site with one of those cookie-banners in a private window so that any cookie it creates will be deleted as soon as the window is closed.
