Imagine having to navigate that site to buy a new monitor, without a monitor.

Honestly that EU cookie legislation does more harm than good.

No, this is malicious compliance bullshit. About as clever as a three year old asking if dolly can have a sweetie instead

how??? I mean, really now? How does the GDPR cause harm? I mean, it harms the greedy marketing corporations and data farmings, but that’s good.

No, it forces people to actively take a stand about the surveillance and exploitation of your data. Without it those things just happens automatically (they still do of course, but not in the form of cookies at least).
Anyway, get the consent-o-matic extension for your browser, it seriously lessens the annoyance, although companies are beginning to take notice of it and are making attempts at circumventing it.

Yeah. Although I don’t get why they can’t just not use cookies?

In 2005 they would have just taken your data without asking.

Sounds like developers need computers from before 2012

I use so many extensions in my browser it will literally shock me when I use someone else’s computer. Websites will just be massively different, full of ads. Most news sites are just not usable workout some serious script blocking and ad block.

I experience the “search box deselected after starting to type” problem on Amazon pretty much every time I use it, even if I have the page up for several minutes before starting to use it. Its like the search box.is specifically designed to fuck with me.
Multiple platforms, multiple browsers, it’s like they dont have anyone actually looking at their UX.
