The cookie law is a symbol of EU red tape that adds no value to citizens. Browser tech is fast moving, there are so many other ways of finger printing a user, from canvas finger printing, session storage and background apps and extensions. The cookie law was invented by some EU non-technocrat that got offended when they found out they were being tracked. The fact is companies are getting away with it in other ways anyway, its a pointless regulation that cost companies thousands to implement across their sites but does nothing for no one.
