Okay, the first two are pretty hilarious, but as far as I can tell, the first one doesn't actually set any cookies if you don't react to the banner, and the second one sets just this: "{"cm":false,"all1st":false,"closed":false}", which seems acceptable.

The other two are trickier to judge, but contain (user?) identifiers, which could certainly be used for tracking, so I'll have to concede your point.

Edit: I had to recheck some of the sites I'd previously checked, as your examples helped me realize that my browser does a lot of blocking. It turns out that just one of my examples was actually a good one: https://finlex.fi/en/

Edit2: Found others: https://www.suomi.fi/frontpage and https://vnk.fi/en/frontpage

Both actually do set cookies, but apparently nothing requiring consent.

Terve! Not surprised to see Finland slightly ahead of the curve.

I think the default is that most people, professionals included, don't understand the law and throw in the banner-spam to be on the safe side or because of outdated checklists.

I have zero problem with (edit: first-party) cookies, only with the web being a horrible UX for 95% of people, so hope more official websites can lead the way, so that pop-ups can slowly be de-normalized in peoples minds.
