What if I don't want to "optimize" my "experience"? What if I'd rather your AI did not remember "my preferences"? If a site is only issuing cookies for these reasons, then you need to be a better developer. Cookies, imo, should be reserved for logged in user experience, otherwise I suspect that you are information mining or just plain lazy. If you are information mining, then say so up front and let the visitor decide if she wants to support your efforts by donating her information for you to sell. end of rant

Italian wedding cake cookies, or Sand Torts as they are known in my family. My sister-in law makes great ones. Chocolate Chips are good too. Chocolate-Chocolate chips are better in my opinion.

In that case the best option is to hope that either you or the webhost are subject to GDPR (or that the host has decided to follow it globally because they don't want to run multiple software variants). In that case you can just adblock all the cookie banners because unless you explicitly click yes, they can't deploy any spyvertizing cookies.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason? Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful? --Zachris Topelius

That's what I do, but the pop-up to accept cookies has become ubiquitous, which means that instead of finding other ways to run their site, they prefer to annoy visitors to their site - or they are bad actors, wanting to catch me off-guard by irritating me like a toddler asking for a cookie - or like a child handing his mother his chewed gum (if she takes it, you know she's one stressed-out mama).
