    It either does not mean what papers say (I have not read it in full so can't comment), or it won't be enforced or it will be pulled at the last moment.
    That really says it all, don't understand the subject but have an opinion which you are quite willing to strongly back but never describe how you came to that opinion.

    Anyway, I can't be arsed discussing the subject, I am being paid to do some work, you remember that don't you?

    I was simply quoting a range of preferences. I didn't claim them as mine.

    Although, now you mention it.........

    The main companies that do it are pretty big, they will just go after then in the courts. They will back down and agree not to track in the EU.

    And how is your favourite porn site going to deliver your preferences directly to your browser window without a tracking cookie ?
