    Where? Totally separate from tracking your mouse clicks and browser fingerprint and whatever and reserving the right to sell it to third parties being a way bigger privacy violation than having no way to refuse site-operational cookies, I also don’t see any “reject all” button.

      Definitely has the “reject all” button for me

      Have you checked your consumer rights? 😂

          Seems like a jest about whether you live in EU or not.

          If you’re not in EU and are not seeing a huge reject all button, it probably means that they are serving you a worse cookie popup because of location.

            IDK; I tried it from VPN from Europe was what I meant by “when it’s accessed from the EU.” I honestly have no explanation why I didn’t see the prompt; my best guess is that either the geolocation or VPN fucked up, or that my adblocker removed a unified package that also included the prompt.

            To search for ad settings I tried clicking AdChoices from the bottom navigation (from Europe) and it took me to a page that lectured me about how I should turn off my third-party cookie blocking, and when I tried from a different browser it succeeded (without having prompted me about cookies) and then announced that I had the opportunity to customize my ads experience from 111 different companies:

            • 33Across
            • AcuityAds
            • Adbrain
            • Adelphic
            • Adform
            • AdGear Technologies
            • Adobe Marketing Cloud - Advertising Services
            • Adstra
            • Alphonso
            • Amazon Ad System
            • Amobee
            • Audiencerate
            • AuDigent

            … and so on. I was also entertained by its summary of privacy policy within the State of California (“If you would like to opt out of the sale of this information, please complete this webform or call our automated line at (877) 365-3500.”)

            I stand by my assessment of relative cuntiness of Variety compared with LGF saying hey we don’t sell your info but we do Google Ads, here’s how to disable their tracking of you if you want, fuck EU’s cookie laws and their weird little dialog box, have a good one.

              I tried that website as well, ublock origin just blocked the pop-up for me. Definitely a big reject all button once it shows up though.
