Europe's parliament's site has cookie banner[1]. People saying you don't need cookie banner either haven't worked in companies or are purely driven by ideology.

And it's a super sane implementation. A simple yes or no.


The site also shows how simple it could be, though - it respects the DNT flag: no cookie banner, no tracking in this case.


It's a case of moving goalposts. The thing claimed is that sites don't need cookie banner and a simple parliament site needs it.
