….says the intrusive ‘cookie consent’ popup which requires me to navigate through various pages, puzzle out the jargonerics and fiddle with settings before I can access the content I actually want to read on the site.
Here’s the thing. If your website is infested with trackers, if you are passing my data on to third parties for profiling and analytics, if your privacy info gets a full Bad Privacy Notice Bingo scorecard, then you DON’T take my privacy seriously at all. You have deliberately chosen to place your commercial interests and convenience over my fundamental rights and freedoms, then place the cognitive and temporal burden on me to protect myself. That’s the opposite of taking privacy very seriously, and the fact that you’re willing to lie about that/don’t understand that is a Big Red Flag for someone like me.
