the Sun would personally sell your organs if it could
Well, you are subscribing to the Sun.
Its your own shitshow.
No one fucking cares.
Oh no. It's not like that. They don't even ask you about cookies any more.
This is a payment so they don't sell all your cookie data to their 1354 trusted data partners/advertising vultures.
LibreWolf (which doesn't store any cookies or other website data by default, unless you allow it) + I still don't care about cookies or Consent-O-Matic
Hm... Was gonna try Arkenfox one of these days tbh.
I find it amusing that they "use cookies to give you the best possible experience", but then ask you to pay to not have them.
Time for 12ft.io I guess.
Where's the option where they send me their home address so i can mail them a baggie of my chili lunch liquishit?
There's gotta be a company address somewhere haha
No you don't.
The site is trash so you leave.
This is a legitimate option per EU guidelines btw. They just want you to accept cookies.
I'm pretty sure the EU rejected this. Facebook tried the exact same thing except the paid version has no ads at all (so either you get tracked, or you pay for an ad-free untracked experience) and the EU's initial findings were that it wasn't compliant because every user should have the freedom to opt out of tracking without having to pay. https://www.pbs.org/newshour/world/european-union-says-meta-breaking-digital-rules-with-paid-ad-free-option-for-facebook-and-instagram
Having said that, Brexit happened so I don't know if the UK still follows the same laws.
EU Withdrawal Act effectively retained all applicable EU law as UK law so anything would have to be specifically rescinded after that.
I don't think anything's changed wrt gdpr
It asks to play DRM content but plays videos anyway.
Their devs must be so sick of their business dept.
I'd be surprised if it was just the business department...
It looks like the big buttons are "accept all" or "pay for no ads", but the cookiescan still be tuned with the link under the "accept all"?
Hm yeah perhaps. I clicked away too fast to try it 😅
The best part of this is you would need to give them your personal information to pay them, and you'd need to accept the necessary cookies for them to know you've paid when you access the website. 🤣🤣🤣
you'd need to accept the necessary cookies for them to know you've paid when you access the website
Cookies that are required for and only used for operational purposes (like knowing if the user is logged in) don't require consent.
Yeah fair enough, I was just highlighting the irony.
A naive question of mine, but isn't using a browser/extensions that silently/transparently blocks cookies (such as Brave, but not just it) enough to fearlessly click "Accept All Cookies", since ultimately they would be pointless for the purpose of tracking (due to the browser's own cookie blocking capabilities)?
Yeah it would. But as I said elsewhere, this is probably enough to be 'too much effort' for the majority of users, and definitely a lot more effort than it should be. I already know several people who habitually click accept all on cookie banners, and I know I have caught myself doing that a couple times too...
you get ads whether pay or not. keep your money
And, though I don't know about this one in particular, just because you pay not to have personalized ads, doesn't mean you're paying not to have your data tracked and sold by this company or to not have tracking cookies added to your browser by them that other sites can use to target ads to you.
It's just that they won't use the information they collect or buy or get from partners' tracking cookies or advertising IDs already on your system to target the ads you see while on their site and logged in.
