And you dont think that’s really vague though?
Why not mandate a x by x pixel popup with a specific wording?
I remember this French company, I think SFR (phone), which had to show on their website their condemnation. Since there weren’t clear specifications they made it so the message would disappear when you scrolled down one pixel, so almost no one saw it.
Acting like I’m spreading misinformation while your comment still clearly states it declines which it does not. I was correcting that part.
Although I see how my comment could mean all cookies get accepted. Wasn’t my intention
So really naive lawmakers then? Come on, that’s not how you make a company obey, everyone knows that, yet legislators time and again do an oopsie and make a highly symbolic law that obviously won’t work because there’s no coercion!
“Make it easy”
If you make a vague law that companies can circumvent they will do it.
That’s why you force the use of a standardized menu, because nothing else makes sense, no? The same way you don’t leave it to the tobacco manufacturers to implement the warnings on the box ; you force them all to adopt the same one that’s clearly visible.
It feels like it’s either severe incompetence, or the work of lobbyists. But I don’t know enough about the matter
Cookies are accepted immediately and the banners closed
Why oh why didn’t the lawmakers add an obligation to use a standardized cookies selection popup.
I remember day one of it coming into effect and it was already obvious this was a necessity.
Lobbying. One of those laws pretending to do the right thing but sabotaged.
Or maybe its even worse than that.
Before you could just have the cookies deleted. But if you do that now you get the awful popup every time, so you just accept them in the end.
I know I do.
This law has made me accept cookies spying.
Pixel or screen %, you know what I mean.
But yeah no followup seems to be an issue with the GDPR
