MODERATORS
Many sites have a one click "reject all" now, and it's getting more common over time.
That's because they have to. If I remember correctly it is supposed to be as easy to reject as to accept, but until it has been judged in a court it is "unknown" what the sites can or should do.
Which doesn't reject all.
They need a cookie to remember your choice otherwise it has to ask you every single time. It’s the paradox of cookies!
There's always a category "necessary", so the preference cookie just falls in that.
