A cookie bar with all the annoyance with none of the compliance. What's the point.

It's an illegal implementation of GDPR meant to act as compliance theater while at the same time making users resent the law as much as the sites do.

For bigger sites like YouTube which can't get away with it as much, there's a "Reject All" button that you can click straight away.

At least three options to retrieve this without without Javascript or cookies and view in a popular browser. Example script below. Tested with p7zip and Info-Zip unzip. BSD libarchive unzip should work, too.

NB. This cookie banner annoyance does not work in text-only browser such as links. It only works when using popular browsers.

Uncomment one of the OPTIONS. Then, assuming script is "1.sh",

    sh 1.sh > 1.htm
    firefox ./1.htm
