When I click "reject all non-essential cookies", that does not mean "ask me again next time." The cookie that tells you to piss off and not track me *is* essential, and if you're deliberately not saving that part to try and trick me into clicking "accept" next time, you're at minimum an asshole, and at worst violating the GDPR.

@Crell Ran into a news site last week with the setup

Non-essential cookies:

  • third-party partners

Essential cookies (cannot be disabled):

  • functional
  • performance
  • advertising

So I left the site.
