LeeSmithG Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 I wish the U.K. and E.U. would start giving fines to websites for breaking the cookie law. Since 2011 (May) you are supposed tell all visitors via a pop up or a big cookies link at top of page, that you write cookies to their hard disk drive. You will find a lot of large companies like amazon, vodafone and retail others ignore this. Come May of this year they will be heavily fined. Be nice for them to fine websites for not running email verification too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steven36 Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 Cookie notices ekkk many people hate them and adblockers come with filter list to block them , If you don't want sites to store cookies use a cookie manger and blacklist the site. You can't sign in to amazon to buy anything without them or sign into any other site for that matter . Some sites abuse this and try to force you to allow cookies in order to even view there site like Forbes does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I wrote, it is against E.U. and U.K. internet and communications laws not to tell visitors that you're writing them to you hard disk drive. I.C.O. from May 2018 are going to dish out heavy fines. You can get the pop up code for free it goes in the <head></head> section of coding on ones page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
