> What the EU is saying, you need my consent when you want to track me, profile me and sell my behavior off to ad companies.

Huh. I always thought that as soon as you use a long-term cookie that could technically be used for tracking, you have to get permission.

Which also means you have to get permission when someone logs in to your website. Though I guess the act of logging in could be seen as giving permission.

Anyway: I don't add cookie banners on my websites, and I don't use any tracking.
