“Cookie dialogs” are supposed to be about trackers of all sorts (not just cookies); there to ask for permission to store non-essential trackers in general.

We need to stop calling them cookie pop ups as that’s a misnomer. You can use cookies. You can store site state, login sessions, shopping carts and much more without asking at all.

They are tracking consent popups.
