Replying to kpr797

It is actually quite sensible to have it be as easy to opt-out as it is to consent. Other wise any consent that is obtained is meaningless, because most people will use the consent button as a "just let me see the content" button, rightfully annoyed and deterred by the hoops they would be forced to jump through by clicking anything else.

Then cookies should be broken until the website requests permission from the browser to use cookies, and the browser itself should be the one responsible for displaying the simple "accept all” and "reject all" interface.

An anology would be like how an iOS app cannot see your physical GPS location without first being granted permission by the user. Cookies need to be access restricted in a similar fashion.
