"govt" didn't develop the specific cookie banner implementation Docker is using.
Yeah the government is far from perfect, but people also treat it as a punching bag. It was companies who used the lack of regulation in tech to abuse cookies, and our government responded with regulation. And now some sites are implementing those rules in very annoying ways. Instead of getting mad at the party who is trying to protect you in this situation, how about directing that anger at the parties who caused th…
What is gained, SERIOUSLY, by these stupid pop-ups? I'm serious, has anyone analyzed this? It really shows how the heavy hand of govt has ZERO cost/benefit constraint or analysis. Browsing on phones is particularly painful.
I wish we could just set an accept all cookies header in our browser and govt would let these websites then stop displaying these damn notices, banners and consent boxes.
The GPDR ones (if you use euro websites) are getting even crazier.

These cookie banners are so annoying - govt messes this type of stuff over and over. Let me control cookies on my end, I can choose not to accept cookies using my own browser controls, or delete them after 1 hour etc.
It's actually not about the cookies, a website is allowed to have technical cookies without a banner, but getting your consent to track you and use and sell your data.

#76But they seem to have lost the production environment race to Kubernetes, at least for now. They are the biggest player in the dev-machine market, but more alternatives are popping up making it even harder to monetise. And containerd isn't a part of Docker (Inc) any more.
They do have Docker Hub, and its privileged position as the default registry of all Docker installs. But I don't really see why paying (i.e enterprise) customers would pick Docker Hub over their friendly neighbourhood cloud provider registry where they already have contracts.
Will Docker start rate limiting the public free repos even harder? Maybe making big orgs pay for the privilege of being hosted in the default docker registry? Charging to have the images "verified"?
Anyways, I hope Docker find some viable business model, it would be sad to see them fail commercially after arguably succeeding in changing the (devops) world.

They dont need consent for cookies. They need consent for tracking
This is all posturing. If you want to reduce tracking, use a browser that reduces the tracking. Seriously, just use total cookie protection or something on firefox.

Open source tools were developed by the community and they're being harrassed now for monetization. How is that being hateful? I am looking out for the community in this sense.

When open-source companies invite more contributions from their community, haters will complain that they’re “harassing the community for monetization”.
Simply put, some people will never be happy no matter what Docker does, and clearly you are one of them.
