I’d like to think that there’s a disagree button in the “more” button, but I’m not holding my breath. As an aside, I’ve seen some (Guardian, for example) that let you disagree IF you subscribe for money. Pretty sure that’s gotta be illegal.
usually, that format involves toggling off every single one of their third party partners, and then a separate toggle is further down for each one’s “legitimate use” or something.
they’re clearly hoping that by making it incredibly time-consuming to go through every option, that most people would give in and accept all.
i don’t think that’s supposed to be allowed under GDPR, but making complaints is also time-consuming. i’d rather just leave those sites immediately after seeing there’s no “reject all” and make a mental note that their stinky site is unusable 🤷
I think it’s regional. Often you’ll see “necessary only” which, who knows what they consider “necessary”. If you have a adblocker, there’s typically a list for “cookie annoyances” you need to enable for some reason. If that doesn’t work you can always use the element picker, although that sometimes breaks the site. If that happens I just leave.
Isn’t there supposed to be a one click disagree to all button, legally? Or did I misunderstand that law?
