Does it only block the pop-up or does it deny consent for anything but necessary cookies?
Because that’s quite essential I think
If you don’t click on yes. You haven’t given your consent
In the US, it’s the opposite. The way the law is written, you have to OPT out. So they’re collecting the moment you land.
I’ve set up a bunch of these cookie banners for US businesses. You can choose if you follow the EU version, or the CCPA version.
Fortunately my VPN usually exits from Europe. The internet default to being less of a dick this way
Wouldn’t really matter for most sites hosted in America. American businesses do not have to comply unless they have EU customers.
International sites like YouTube absolutely has some system that will switch the cookie tracking depending on geo location, from CCPA to GDPR.
But American sites don’t really gaf. Small News site in America, unless they’re paying for a fancy Cookie Consent Management tool, is doing it the US way and it’s opt out, regardless of where you’re coming from.
For example: if Kansas News site gets a warning from the EU about cookies, they’re not going to care. They don’t have the budget, and honestly, easier to just block all IPs from outside the US.
If you hate this, stop using American products and services. (And I say this as a privacy concerned American)
If you don’t click any of the options and simply block the pop-up, it commonly breaks the site. Doesn’t matter what’s ethically right, you have to be practical.
Where have you experienced this?
Countless sites and I’m not keeping track because I visit more than a few sites and not always recurringly. Typically, the page is frozen and I have to disable cookie consent blocker to decline and then be able to use the website. Are you seriously saying you’ve never encountered this?
Correct. Usually when I just delete a js modal asking me some bullshit, the website works fine.
Seriously. I see comments like this all the time but no examples.
Just the idea that a developer would care so much to create something like “If user doesn’t consent, ruin their experience”.
