Any website that does that I just close the tab.

I refuse to go to sites that do this, I also refuse to go to sites that block adblock...and specially the sites that detect and block private browsing, that one shouldn't even be a thing

Cool. One less website to visit. Not like there is a shortage.

I'm pretty sure breaking your website with no cookies is against the rules, actually. It's either serve the EU with GDPR-compliance or GTFO entirely.

Yeah, you could still just break the law, but as usual there's a cost to that one way or the other.

Your meme is funny, but people genuinely use these arguments to be against sensible EU laws, hence the response I imagine.

Yeah being unable to open… checks notes local news websites from the US has been a real deal breaker

That's gotta be quite some website you visited, if it didn't load at all without cookies. As someone from Germany, who mostly rejects every sites cookies, except for the essential ones most of the time, but sometimes outright rejects all cookies, I've never encountered a website that refused to load upon doing that.

Not defending any webpages that do do that, just contributing my personal experience.

Also: this for chrome or this for fiefrerfx

That's fine. People who don't care about cookies will accept them anyway and those who do care about cookies will know not to visit that site anymore.

I feel like people would have responded to this meme better if you didn't depict the European Union as an NPC

Oh boo I can't visit American propaganda websites what a loss to my European life style

So far I’ve only seen small US newspaper who did this. Is anyone angry about this?

Serious question: I know that there are tracking cookies and the user should be able to decline those,but most sites have an auth cookie that stores you're credentials. The devs can store it in a different place like local storage but thats really unsecured.what can the devs do in this situation when the user decline all cookies?

I generally agree with the statment under that image and it's certainly a funny meme but also Illegal, sadly the enforcment is a joke but that's not really the laws fault!

That's literally the point though...

Nearly all of these are illegal, but sadly there is little enforcement when it comes to this. (Tracking must be opt-in, not opt-out. Ignoring a banner must be interpreted as declining. Opting out must be a simple option, not navigating a complex and misleading menus. The users choice applies to any form of tracking, not just cookies...)
