I reject all interest reflexively. I think it's great. Not! It just shows me how much tracking there actually is... And since I delete my cookies every session, I have to do it every time.

I still wonder what the 'legitimate interests' of ad companies are. I also wonder if rejecting the cookies actually works, it's not like I can check right?

I will say one major benefit of the cookie notifications is just raising the public awareness of tracking.
