I believe the GDPR is why even most US websites have an opt-in requirement for cookies, which I really appreciate. The EU is far more willing to make corporations behave than the US.

@ArtGeek@mastodon.social yes, the cookie popup is a form of informed consent required by the GDPR when the visitor might be a citizen of any of the EU member countries. In addition, some countries, like Italy and Germany, have even more strict privacy requirements for the websites hosted on their respective regions and do not allow truly anonymous website hosting by enforcing identity verification on organizations and businesses.🙂
