Komonews now apparently does this crap where it needs to "process" your cookie opt-out, at least on mobile.
Any alternative news sources you'd recommend to follow? Just for stuff like weather or big events.
If you're unfamiliar with this tactic, when you click "opt-out" the webpage basically displays this widget with a loading bar saying it needs to "process" your request. When in reality you're asking them to simply not use cookies, so it's saving the web browser time by not installing any cookies.
Pretty sure this is actually fraud. Trying to trick someone into abandon their rights by lying ist fraud right?
Its not illegal for websites to waste your time. For example, Reddit
This is America and KOMO/Sinclair is an American company, serving American users. What "rights" do you think you are being tricked out of? You don't have a right to not be tracked.
You found the European.
