So you care, you say!? No you ****ing don't! These are your defaults!

If you really had cared, you wouldn't need to show this cookie banner at all. That's how much you care.

And then I haven't said a word about your 229 partners who might use your cookies.

Instead, it created annoying popups that 99% of people click through without reading.

Before GDPR: Tracked without consent, working UX

How screwed up must a company's thinking be to believe that it's fine and totally normal to have *277* partners that they want to give all of your data to?!

NOBODY that knows of this will be fine with that! So many people "agree" because they are annoyed to their limit and often aren't even aware that it's happening. The Problem is not that companies need to have these cookie banners, the problem is that they collect your data in a frenzy and give it away!

Corporations: Weeel, protecting users does not suit our extractive practices, so we will introduce this little coerc...ehm...consent cookier banner so that people can happily keep being exploited.
People: Booo EU! Such a dum-dum idea this GDPR thing.

Hier wird es gut gekennzeichnet: Beim Cookie-Banner auf "Nicht akzeptieren" klicken, bedeutet nicht kein Tracking, sondern bloß, dass der Websitebetreiber die Verwendung leugnet. Guter Dreh! #CookieBanners #Translation
