I have never seen this before. Usually once I click my preferences the screen just goes away. What’s the difference between those websites and this one?
Well, optimistically I’d say shitty web stuff, in the current climate I postulate also a little time-out for you to properly hit cancel out of frustration.

I would suspect this is an intentional dark pattern. They’re probably hoping most people will get tired of waiting and click cancel, which sets it back to the default of allowing all cookies.

That’s it imo. “a few minutes” to process is silly. That cancel button is huge too.

I'm willing to bet canceling will be instant too
