Nasty Cookie Messages

Post by carlos62 »

Unfortunate some stupid and nasty political player within the European Community have ruled, that Web side have to inform and ask to install cookies in customers computer.
This is wrong, because cookies is a function of the Client, and so, if this politicians wants that user get information about the storing - the correct rule were to make a law about clients.
The Problem is now, if you don't like to be tracked you can set your client to store cookies only for a limited time ... for example one session.
But, in this case, you get on every time you enter such a web page the nasty "This side uses Cookies for ... take it or leave page" Messages.
The reason for this is: The user Agreement is also stored on a cookie .... :cry:
An additional Switch like "remove social media buttons" to shut this down may be extremely nice Feature. :D
