Have you ever tried not pressing "Agree" on the cookie consent, at PC Gamer?
It seems impossible - the dialog pops out every single page surfed, regardless.

For example, if you press "More Options -> Save & Exit".

Of course, thank you, and I do realize that, but:

  1. I tried selecting sections that where not associated with othe vendors - same result;

  2. Shouldn't it still be allowed to store cookies for the same vendor/domain, without any consent, by default.

  3. There are other means/API than cookies to store consent state in common browsers, including: LocalStorage, IndexedDB, SessionStorage, CacheStorage etc.
