Well thanks to the EU you may not have to suffer anymore. Just like they got rid of roaming charges.
Oh, hang on, I've just remembered something, we got our sovereignty back...

I'm sure this is another of your pointless attacks on UK leaving the EU, but whatever point you think you made went right over my head, no idea what you are talking about.

You shouldn’t really see any at all. The cookie consent pop ups are a requirement of EU law so web users elsewhere in the world are only likely to see them if they’re using a European IP (perhaps due to being on a VPN) or if the site they’re visiting is messed up in some way.

Re: The EU and cookies
A good script blocker deals with most of them plus trackers etc.
