The price we pay for obfuscating the trust signals on our connection is that our connection is untrusted.

As an American, I have a similar experience when I travel across the Atlantic. It's always funny to me when I land in the UK, start using websites I use normally at home, and get cookie verification modals from hell to breakfast.




Can't vouch for other Europeans but I got used to them to the point my arm moves automatically where needed before clicking, even accounting for extra modals. I almost don't register them anymore.


Consent-O-Matic (and probably other extensions too) will refuse most cookies automaticaly for you:

Thanks a lot, I totally forgot about this!
