Can we go back and see what HN users views about the EU Cookie Law was, before the law was put into implementation? Perhaps we will also see hearty support for it, as we now see with the GDPR - when the EU cookie law is just regarded as a nuisance now.
It's counter productive in that disabling or regularly clearing cookies to improve privacy can result in annoying popup messages every. single. time. a website is visited.
I am truly grateful to the developer or the firefox addon 'I don't care about cookies'...
