Cookies
I knew this cookie compliance thing was coming and I had doubts I would like it. I am all for making the 'net a better place, but foisting this compliance upon me is counter helpful.
As well-intentioned as it is the complince now bugs the hell out of me with banners blocking my view - I will add that this website has done a very good job with its compliance banner by not being "in your face" too much. But for many other websites it is a thorough nuisance.
Also, I wonder just how many people on the 'net actually understand the cookie thing anyway and can make an informed choice. I suspect this compliance has not made an ounce of difference to the effectiveness of tracking cookies.
