Your efforts are appreciated! Thank youThere is now a "Reject All" button, though it may take a bit of time to actually show up.![]()
There is now a reject all button. Thanks.I can't block something that is required by the laws of the land. If you don't accept any cookie at all, you will continue to get the popup.
I have edited the frequency of the popup for people that give no input, reject all and partial rejection.
I have also inquired as to why there isn't an easy to see "reject all" button.
Its not about countries but companies and individuals - so GDPR applies to everyone out there managing EU-citizen data originating within the EU.Just a note: GDPR is a European Union law (plus UK as long as it has a similar law) - but of course not the whole Europe. European countries outside European Union are not bound by the same rules.
Of course, but not for example those of Swiss or Ukrainian citizens - which are in Europe but not in EU.so GDPR applies to everyone out there managing EU-citizen data
So do most of us that have to go through the bollocks every time we view a new site!I understand why the laws exist, I just wish they were easier to implement and understand.
Its not about citizens. Its about where you harvest and how you store data. A Chinese living in Berlin is protected. A German living in Japan is not.Of course, but not for example those of Swiss or Ukrainian citizens - which are in Europe but not in EU.
Anyway it does apply to EEA countries as well, so it does include Norway and Iceland, for example.
The problem with GDPR is that they became over-ambitious when making the rules. The result is that compliance is very difficult and the rules sometimes make no sense to ordinary people. We see this in a lot of modern legislation. The US is of course the mother of overly detailed and complex legislation - but its a rising problem.I understand why the laws exist, I just wish they were easier to implement and understand.
Yes, and also every time you clear your cookies. My wife has here browser set to clear cookies after every use, she gets policy acceptance notifications every single time she uses her iPad.So do most of us that have to go through the bollocks every time we view a new site!

Most sites won’t load or run properly with all cookies and scripts blocked. I too subscribed to this site even though I run an ad blocker and got no ads. People have to accept that the stuff they want has to be paid for somehow.that's why I block all cookies and scripts and ads with various tools.

I get site admins need to make money and wish to support them, unfortunately most of the platforms that generate that ad revenue tend to be a bit sketchy
Which is why it makes perfect sense for sites to disclose the Form of this payment and make the acceptance explicit.People have to accept that the stuff they want has to be paid for somehow.
Evidently. EU laws apply in EU only - and data originating from EU are still protected by EU law - although it's difficult to protect them anyway - that's why Schrem was able to take down Safe Harbor first and Privacy Shield later, as US law is not enough to protect EU data.A Chinese living in Berlin is protected. A German living in Japan is not.
