That's pretty awful, how are you even supposed to interpret that? I'm guessing it's something like "first || !second", because that would be the sleaziest.

I think the left column is the "legitimate interest" version of the cookie type, and the right column the "consent" version (whatever that means). So you can enable and disable either independently, but the former is enabled by default.
