Google fined €150M, Facebook €60M for for non-compliance with French legislation
It's a shame there aren't more big fines for shitty sites, like stackoverflow.com, that punish people who don't accept all cookies by prompting on every visit.<p>If that's not bad enough, having an "Accept all" button but requiring another click to have the option of refusing, then making us manually select each category to turn off, then confirming, is certainly not symmetric.<p>These large sites know exactly what they're doing. They're hoping people will become fed up enough to just accept, or they're hoping there'll be enough accidents where people click "Accept all". It's rather shitty.
