Some of us don't give a shit about tracking and are forced to go through all those stupid banners. So yes, I blame the EU. There should be some HTTP header that you could set to say that you accept everything. It's opt-in so the EU bureaucrats should be OK with it.

The GDPR covers the intent and processing of the data rather than any specific technical means - it's not limited to cookies. Please see my other comment for why implementing that in-browser is not feasible: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30964163
