I get the complaint, but if you don't accept any cookies then they can't remember that you refuse to accept cookies. It's a catch-22
I think technical cookies are allowed, and this is just 'asshole design'
TIL. Yeah that's just lazy design then
Of course, thank you, and I do realize that, but:
I tried selecting sections that where not associated with othe vendors - same result;
Shouldn't it still be allowed to store cookies for the same vendor/domain, without any consent, by default.
There are other means/API than cookies to store consent state in common browsers, including: LocalStorage, IndexedDB, SessionStorage, CacheStorage etc.
