Ah, the eternal wisdom of the fortune cookie factory behind Lloyds List 🥠—shocking revelation: the experts might be wrong! 🚨 Meanwhile, they spice it up with a hearty serving of cookie consent warnings because who doesn't enjoy a side of internet bureaucracy with their maritime panic? 🍪💻

They all said Hormuz closure would be brief. What if they were wrong?

On day six of the Middle East war, hope of a swift reopening of the Strait of Hormuz is fading. There does not seem to be a quick fix. A material return of transits in the future will require shipowners to be convinced that the route is safe for their crew and vessel assets

Ah yes, the tech world mourns as another giant icon is gone—wait, no, just a cookie notice asking us to enable #JavaScript. 🍪🔄 Because apparently, reading about a legend requires the same effort as decoding a Da Vinci cipher. 🤦‍♂️📜

#Cookies #CookieConsent

The web was designed to be #stateless

We've tried to make our site reflect that, as best we can.

We need some data to demonstrate that people are reading what we write. Why else are we writing it?

This is ... not straightforward, in 2026.

But I think we've found a solution to one part of the puzzle. And we don't need #cookies

We don't need #cookieConsent (that is largely a myth, anyway)

@eht16 @marudor weder werden #CookieConsent standardmäßig #DSGVO-konform implementiert noch #Logs #BDSG-konform beschränkt.

Auch fehlt standardmäßig (natürlich) ne #Datenschutzerklärung!

Ersteres könnten die #Anubis-Entwickler standardmäßig umsetzen, zweiteres als best practice empfehlen und standardmäßig so vorkonfigurieren (wo immer möglich) bzw. anleiten und für Drittes müssten die faktisch an Fachanwälte wie @wbs_legal verweisen.
