            Because we were talking about how to save that information without using cookies. Setting a cookie would break the one thing that the conversation was about, wouldn’t it?

            If we’re in a fun conversation about how to enter your home without using the door, would you be the one saying “I have an idea, I have an idea: use the door”?

              It was clearly a reference to the so called ‘cookie laws’ requiring permission for tracking cookies. However, cookies that are not for tracking purposes do not require any form of consent.
