Actually not true, the regulation (eprivacy directive /pecr in uk) applies to all trackers including cookies, pixels, scripts,etc. if you can do with only “strictly necessary” across those then youre right.

Also consider visitors are used to these prompts, without one they may wonder: does this site follow the law?

This reminds me of ssl certs: you can pay for a basic cert or one with identity verification. Most users don’t check identity verification but its super important. To prevent scams, not security per se. Twitter doesn’t even offer an id verification service: maybe for $50/yr they should confirm who the poster is and forbid imposters from poaching your name.

Blanket on a smoker? Can you tell me about that? Never thought to use one but have heard of people making insulating jackets

Yes, that is better because it is more competitive and gives other ecommerce a better chance to grow.

This will work because the goggles and associated services are freely given away. Who would spend so much of their own money when they can have it for free with ads? /sarcasm

Extra weird to use employees and notice only the attractive ones made it on the careers page… and if they leave and are still there etc etc

Having a senior leadership position in “late 20s” sure seems like privilege and connections to me. Who cares about “sprints” when your family has all the benefits and the executive positions are the default.
