    several Member States are now blocking the EU Commission’s proposal to get rid of the cookie banner

    Which ones? Why’s there no list here when the “take action” lists by country?

    Tired of misleading cookie banners? The EU Commission has finally proposed a solution: set your privacy preferences in the browser once, and never see another banner. Unfortunately, the tracking industry is pushing back – and so far, they’ve been successful. We need YOUR help to #KillTheCookieBanner!

      The EU never asked for cookie banners. The industry is just really bad at 1. following the law 2. following the spirit of law 3. designing good UI/UX

      So banner data-sharing dialogs don’t offer a simple reject button. That’s not lawful.
