localStorage is a thing, don’t need cookies for browser state
Legally it’s the same thing. The ‘cookie laws’ don’t explicitly forbid cookies, any kind of tracking is prohibited. Also, just storing a cookie with the information that a banner was shown doesn’t require consent. The only thing that requires consent is tracking the user.
At least for GDPR, if you are not storing users’ data, you don’t have to put a banner.
And even if you’re storing relevant user data, you don’t have to put a banner.
You only need a banner if you’re storing data you don’t need, for tracking or other secondary purposes.
But companies actively want the end users to misunderstand and blame the law for making the internet so bad with the banners.
Remember, companies only care about their pockets, not the people.
Shouldn’t he be happy though?
