Haha, one of my stream alerts/overlays is asking me to accept cookies 🤡
Edit: Seems like this is coming from the Throne Gifts overlay. What are they gonna fucking track??
I used OBS's "interact with this browser source" option to reject all cookies and it added a little cookie icon that's permanent on the overlay at all times, presumably as a nagging reminder to get me to accept the cookies
The subtle nagging to accept all cookies has been increasingly annoying me as of late. Particularly when it comes to the company OneTrust, which Throne is also using. When OneTrust first started doing cookie pop-ups, you could click one button to ignore all and it would stick across multiple sessions and I think even multiple websites.
Last year, that changed to where clicking "Reject All" opens the settings page and forces me to check "do not track" in every single separate category. And now, for the last few months, if I visit a website using OneTrust, it will ask me about whether or not I will accept cookies every single time I visit.
It may not surprise you, but on websites where I was too annoyed to toggle off five different tracking categories and just said "yes," the cookie tracking screen disappeared and never came back. But on websites where I tell them no, they will go out of their way to pop-up the "accept all cookies?" nag screen every single time I load a new page.
This is also true of this Throne Gifts overlay: If I close and reopen OBS, it goes right back to "Accept all cookies?"
What's worse? The cookies themselves, or the increasing lengths they go to make it inconvenient to block them?
