I could ask for explicit consent on each and every page view for every single visitor.
Of course, lots of people might want to opt out of that, but where to store the fact they don't want to be asked again?
Oh yeah, I could store the result in...
a cookie.

We can also expect Google Ireland ( Google Europe ) to shut down on the 25th ..this would make the "search page" mandatory opt in.."adsense" ads mandatory opt in.."Dclick" ads mandatory opt in etc ..or Google would be breaking EU law. ;-)
Whichever clown thought of using auto ( on load presumably ) pop ups to opt in before continuing to use the pages ..hasn't thought very far ..and probably has an AV that silently kills pup ups anyway..or IE which will say it stopped the pop up ..without saying why.

You mean... which bugs them with a popup whenever they visit a new page! Its pretty hard to find a website that DOESN'T use cookies nowadays!
I also wonder if there will be an explicit pass for big outfits like Google. You know, like... By agreeing to our gmail privacy policy, you explicitly agree to allow the double-dart cookie blah blah...

Cookie law deferred for one yea
UK websites are being given one year to comply with EU cookie laws, the Information Commissioner's Office has said.
The UK government also sought to reassure the industry that there would be "no overnight changes". |
