It's also the user's problem because there aren't websites to go to that aren't showing those banners.

Well, except the big, commonly-used ones where you've already consented (or not). Facebook, for instance. It's like this law was hand-tuned to consolidate users into only visiting a few commonly-accessed sites to save themselves the UX annoyance at the cost of the broader Internet's discoverability.

I don't agree, many websites don't have it. Its a choice that these we sites that they want to still track everyone, and they are paying for it in bad UX.

It's the safest choice given the incentives.
