Cookie laws have destroyed my web browsing experience much more than amp ever has.

It's not the laws that have destroyed the experience, it's the reckless and senseless selling of data. Websites don't need to show any popups, they choose to.

Honouring DNT should be trivial, no user interaction needed to stop tracking and therefore the need for 99% of these popups.

There is a good solution: force DNT to be honoured.

It's the malicious compliance of the laws hat has destroyed our web browsing experience.

Companies that use a disproportionate of trackers and therefore need cookie banners destroyed my web browsing experience.

If you think about the GDPR, it's not about cookies at all but consent for tracking.

Many websites prefer to destroy their usability to get your consent in various deceptive ways. You can definitely have technical cookies and no cookies banner.
