    Yes but when you see a cookie warning from a website it stores your choice in a cookie. So if you clear your cookies out then you see the warning again the next time you visit the website. So you don’t have much choice but to accept all cookies. Each website uses differently named cookies, so can’t simply solve it. There are extensions which try, like “I don’t care about cookies” but they break things and they have to have a list of websites. There will always be some which aren’t on there. The EU could have stipulated what the name of the cookie should be, or stipulated that it should be a browser option like “do not track”, but the EU is a massive corrupt bureaucracy.

      So do not clear your cookie cache out? This is nothing to do with the EU. It is your personal choice. You can even use a VPN to make the internet view you as someone from another continent.

      The EU did not implement this to make money, which is what you are implying when you say they are corrupt. They did it because there are scumbags out there, and they are abusing the data you give them when you view their site. There is a good reason to not give out your name and address when you go online, but if you are happy to do just that then there is a million and one ways to achieve it.
