A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I can't seem to get the cookie page to pop up on this one even if I turn off adblockers, but in most cases yes.
Some sites I'll go to using my regular US-based IP address, and I'll have to manually click through to disable cookies, sometimes by category and sometimes individually for dozens or hundreds but to accept all is one click. It's heavily designed to pressure you to click accept all and move on.
If I connect to an EU country via VPN and visit the same sites on a fresh browser session, I'll see a similar "No I don't accept" popup.
Yeah, I was afraid that would be the case. Recently we're getting some "consent or pay" popups, which are also being debated and will likely become illegal.
Guess it makes even more sense to use a VPN in the US, then.
