I generally reject all. Then check for those sneaky sites that keep "legitimate interest" cookies ticked. I really doubt their idea of legitimate and my idea of legitimate align in any way.
I have no idea how an ad servicing company I have never heard of could have a legitimate interest in my online activities.
The same way certain people have a 'legitimate' interest in the jewelry in your house.
