while we're wishing for impossible things i'd also love if the consent dialogs were an actual standard. if sites could describe a list of what they needed consent for and the browser supplied the actual dialog, so i could just configure it to always allow all if i wanted to, that would be fantastic.
Or even better a header to signal the wish to not be tracked. We could call it "Do Not Track", and enforce with laws.

Some preferences are not required for the website to work, but do improve the experience. These are classified as "functional cookies", "preference cookies", or "user interface cookies" in ePrivacy Directive and UK GDPR literature, examples like remembering your selected language, and still require consent.

These require consent if, for example, they involve the use of a third-party service. Setting a first-party dark mode cookie does not require opting in even if it's "non-essential". It does however require disclosure. The jury's also still out to what degree third-party cookies need to be disclosed in detail (e.g. whether you really need to keep track of the dozens of cookies Google Maps or YouTube sets or whether yo…

We need all of the informatics corporations to die and be reborn as companies that serve their customers.
Well, they surely aren't committing seppuku. No such thing as a corporate honor or shame, only business interests. At least, not with any large corporations. And this status quo needs to change. Too much power and information disparity at the moment, the markets are essentially broken.
I like this, but would like it to avoid the loading time of the consent popups. Too often, the consent dialogue takes over a second to load, and when you finally click 'accept' there is a little spinner for what seems like ages before the dialogue goes away and you get to see the content you came to see. Can we simply detect the "<script src=consent.js..." tag, and simply not load it for the most common and annoying…
In the case that the popup doesn't load/the user never makes a choice, what is the cookie behavior? How about if you hit the "x" button on the cookie popup instead of either "accept all" or "reject all"? My assumption is that, despite what the law says/is meant to do, doing anything than going through the checklist will result in all cookies being enabled.

Brave uses Easylist/uBO Cookies list. Everyone develops for it.
If that was true, then Easylist/uBO Cookies list wouldn't work, as the thing they're blocking would have been developed not to be blockable by those things.

I’m wondefing if those embeds would work in an ` `. This prevents them from reading/writing cookies, but everything else should work fine.
